Staff

Mother’s Day Out of Westchester, Inc has over 30 staff members. The teachers all meet or exceed the educational requirements mandated by the State of Maryland. All MDOW employees have had a complete background check. All employees receive continuing education every year and many are CPR and First Aid certified.  

The classrooms are staffed with a lead teacher and an aide. Many of the MDOW classroom aides are qualified to be lead teachers. MDOW has been able to retain employees and provide a stable learning environment for our students. Quite a few of the staff were hired and trained after their children graduated from MDOW.  MDOW is also proud to have several former students on staff!
