Here's the bad part about OECC: the waitlists to get in can be pretty long. That's literally the only bad part we encountered in the year+ that our kids were there (we started with our infant foster son and his toddler sister). The staff is super diverse and so are the kids who attend, the grounds are beautiful and huge, there's tons of space for the kids to run and play and the staff was consistently so attentive and thoughtful, not just of our kids but of us. Things I especially loved: -Big classrooms, lots of play space both indoors and outdoors -Regular chances for the kids to work with a garden and a REALLY big nature/grassy/play area outdoors (plus two smaller fenced-in areas for really little ones). -Sliding scale for folx with different incomes. -Incredibly good with communication and with working with us (one of our kids had unique health issues and OECC was wonderful with him) -Really open to feedback and flexibility (we had a few times where we gently asked for folx to refrain from touching/playing with our foster daughter's hair and they were totally understanding and it didn't become a Thing) -They provide meals themselves and they're well-rounded, and you get documentation for toddlers and babies of what/how much they ate. Honestly... I could go on and on. As foster parents, our kids sometimes need a bit of extra help or have more appointments/visitors than most kids, and OECC was wonderful in working with us and with the folx involved. We would love to have kiddos go there again someday if there was need and we could find an open spot, and I genuinely can't recommend them enough!
