About the Provider
In an effort to provide quality child care in southern Rowan County, Cornerstone Child Development Center opened its doors on Webb Road in September of 2000. Although it was a humbling beginning, CCDC began to grow quickly and soon became a leading four star licensed child development center. In May of 2006, CCDC Main welcomed the addition of CCDC City on Faith Road to reach out and service the central region of Rowan County. Once again, this new center proved to be a success and CCDC City became a recognized 4 star licensed child development center. Quickly after the success of CCDC City and with the continued success of CCDC Main, CCDC East on Eastville Drive in Rockwell opened its doors in September of 2006 to service to the eastern region of Rowan County with the same quality. Rising up to the challenge of its predecessors, CCDC East soon became the largest growing 4 star licensed child development center in their area. With the extreme growth and demand in the county, CCDC North located in Spencer emerged on the scene in March of 2009 to reestablish quality child care in that area. With determination, CCDC North proved to be just that when they received their 4 star licensing. Although there are no current plans, CCDC welcomes the opportunity to offer our services to our western Rowan County community.
Currently, Cornerstone Child Development Centers serve over 250 families in Rowan County offering high quality child care. In addition, CCDC employs over 45 full time staff members and is larger than most small businesses.
From our humble beginnings on Webb Rd to the extreme growth with the addition of three top performing facilities, CCDC stands firm on its commitment to be the leading child care provider in Rowan County.
