About
Welcome! Thank you for your interest in Childcare Network on 41st street in Wilmington, NC. My name is Carolyn Woodcock and I am the school Director. I have been working in early childhood education for over 5 years and have been a teacher for all ages as well as an Education Coordinator. For as long as I can remember I wanted to teach but the moment that stands out the most is when I was in the fifth grade, I struggled with some personal learning disabilities and my teacher was an integral part in helping me and I wanted to provide that same support to other children.I want to the families to have confidence as they drop off that their children are getting the best possible care and know that can trust us the minute they walk out the door. I want children to be encouraged and guided in other to thrive and enjoy coming to school. I love working as a team to provide our students and families with high-quality childcare. Our goal is to work collaboratively to ensure each family and child has a positive early education experience. We strive to provide a space where each individual feels secure and confident in who they are.

We absolutely love this location! My son started the Pre-K program in Oct 2024 and the transformation that has taken place in him since then is truly unremarkable! Mrs. Howard and Ms. Brittney are AMAZING (along with all the other staff). They are very compassionate, attentive and goal oriented. Their communication with me about my son’s strengths and weaknesses is better than I ever imagined. The fact that my 4 year old son wakes up every morning excited and ready to go to school says enough. I cannot speak for anyone else, but I am so grateful my son has such amazing role models to help mold, shape and prepare him for Kindergarten. This Mama’s heart is so full and I cannot thank them enough!!!

The teachers Tasha and Kim are absolutely wonderful with my son. He loves going in the morning and he has learned so much from them. I am sad that my son will soon being moving into a new room soon as the highlight of his morning is seeing Mrs Tasha. And then he is always so happy with Mrs Kim when I come in to pick him up. I’m so glad I picked 41st childcare network as the home away from home for my son!

From the moment we walked in, Mrs. Melissa, Mrs. Mittia, and Mrs. Carolyn in the admin team made us feel welcome and at ease. They are always so helpful and attentive to any questions or concerns we have. In the NC Pre-K classroom, Mrs. Howard and Ms. Brittany foster a nurturing learning environment and have made such a positive impact. The after-school care team is also fantastic. They are reliable, caring, and ensure that my child is engaged after school.

We made the switch to Childcare network in April of last year after very suddenly needing a new daycare placement for my son. From the moment I showed up for the tour and everyday since I have felt so confident that my child is safe, cared for, and learning. The entire admin team, Mrs. Carolyn, Mrs. Melissa, and Mrs. Mettia are incredible, and care for my son like he’s family, not too mention are so good at parent communication! His PreK teachers, Mrs. howard and Mrs. Brittany, I can’t say enough good things about. I feel so confident that he is going to be ready to start Kindergarten next year and will thrive because of all the academic and social lessons they have taught him. And the after school program staff too, do an excellent job. We love our Childcare Network #41 family!

I want to give a big shout out to: Mrs. Melissa, Mrs. Mittia and Mrs, Carolyn in the admin staff Everyone is super nice and welcoming and remembers all the adults that are with their children. Ms. Mittia is super kind and honest. She has a way with kids and teaches them respect and good behavior. I appreciate everything she has done for my nephew. Mrs. Howard, Ms. Brittany in the NC Pre-K classroom Mrs. Howard and Ms. Brittany had taught my nephew so much. Each day he telling me new fact and using vocabulary I didn’t know he knew. Love the science fair and projects they do for the kids. After school care team Everyone here is great. The kids are always doing something when I pick my nephew up. From playing outside, doing crafts indoors, or just playing with the various enrichment toys. The kids stay busy and are well looked after. I can see a huge difference in my nephew since he started here and it all thanks to the wonderful staff here. Thank you sooo much.

Childcare Network has been COMPLETELY amazing with me and my boys! The patience and care alone you cannot find ANYWHERE and it is such a breath a fresh air to know my kids are truly safe when I drop them off there. Truly thankful for all they do in assisting me in my care for my kids. Carolyn, Meita (may be spelled wrong but she knows) and Millisa are just quick shout outs, however their teachers are AMAZING AS WELL! THANK YOU GUYS SOOO MUCH AGAIN!!!

Great Admin team! Admin team has been great with giving feedback and their partnership which as a parent is very instrumental with a 4yo in Pre-K. As a parent where my child is in their care for the majority of the day I wanted to be able to know if he was doing well and when he wasn’t. Knowing there was understanding admin behind him that believes in him made it comforting when he’s had issues with behavior. Seeing them encourage him in the mornings and tomorrow is another opportunity attitude makes you feel supported and the reminder of tomorrows another day to be great helps you not want to throw in the towel😅lucky to have that time of support in a childcare center!
