In an effort to provide affordable, quality child care to the citizens of Charles County, the County Commissioners established a cooperative partnership between county government and AlphaBEST. This partnership offers two child care opportunities to Charles County citizens—the Port Tobacco Onsite Child Care Program and the Before and After School Child Care Program (BASCC). Both programs are administered and monitored by the Charles County Department of Community Services.
AlphaBEST offers structured, supervised, child care programs complete with recreational enrichment and academic activities, all of which allow students choices during this constructive time. With academic and enrichment activities, homework time, arts and crafts, recreational activities, and nutritious snacks, your children are in a safe, creative, and stimulating setting. By combining academic enrichment activities and homework assistance with gross motor skills and creative arts activities; a well-rounded, child-centered program in a safe, creative, and structured environment is provided.
