Mission:
BCD mission is to provide the highest quality childcare that sets itself apart from other day cares. BCD ensures individualized care plans to ensure kiddos are learning based on their unique abilities and needs. A child’s successful day at BCD will include a safe environment, respect, love and care. Along with making friends and having a balance of learning and playing. A child who graduates from BCD, does so with confidence and a solid learning base; and with excitement of becoming a Brock ISD Eagle! Brock Country Day is where lifelong friends and wonderful memories are made!
How We Began:
In August 2004, Brock Country Day began with our school age program at the Brock ISD cafeteria while we were wrapping up construction of our custom build that sits on 2 acres. We opened our Main Building in September with a full center of 80% capacity! Immediately we knew we would have to be flexible with our space to keep up with the growing Brock Community. We have taken down walls, put up ½ walls, added sinks/toilets, painted walls (many layers of paint), added texture to walls, took down our offices for classrooms and still needed more space! Then in 2019, we added a beautiful “Red Barn” that offers a inviting modern environment with 24’ ceiling height and barn doors throughout!
One of our greatest joys is seeing children develop strong friendships and healthy teacher/caregiver bond while at BCD. Many of these friendships will provide support & confidence in their transition to school at Brock ISD. We are proud to say we have our first little ones from early years, graduate high school, grow up, have babies and many of their babies now attending Brock Country Day. You may even see one of BCD little ones grow up and return to BCD as staff… so rewarding!
We offer a beautiful, safe and convenient location for the Brock Community. Brock Country Day was one of the first large commercial business in Brock. BCD is proud to be a part of the Brock Community and support our Brock Eagles!
HIGH QUALITY CHILDCARE BEGINS WITH HIGH QUALITY MANAGEMENT!
