Free Sibling Co-Op
This is a benefit for parents who want to participate in a co-op preschool, but do not have babysitting available for their younger children. Parents use the onsite nursery and the sibling co-op coordinator schedules the swapping of babysitting services.
This service is supported by Cedar Cross Preschool, but is run completely by the parents who utilize it, so it does not have additional costs associated with it!
All parents participating should plan on working in the nursery with the children of other Cedar Cross families once a month.
This service is only available to parents when they are working in the classroom.

“The babysitting co-op allowed me and my oldest son to participate in Cedar Cross’ program since we moved here from IL only days before preschool started and knew no one. It was great getting to know other preschool moms and it ended up being a playgroup for my youngest child that was built into my schedule. In fact, when my youngest starts in the 2-3 year old class, he will be with a couple of his babysitting co-op friends!” - Jen Yormark, CCCP Parent 4 years
