How Enrollment Works
Enrolling your child at Drool of Rock Owings Mills follows a simple, five-step path designed to help your family feel confident before the first day of class. Most families move from first contact to enrollment in about two to three weeks, though timing can shift depending on classroom availability.
Step 1
Schedule a tour
Everything starts with a visit. Use the form below or call us directly to pick a time that works for your family — mornings tend to show off circle time and music class, while afternoons show quieter creative play.
Step 2
Tour the school
During your visit you’ll walk through every classroom your child could join, meet current staff, and see our music-infused curriculum in action. Bring your questions about ratios, daily schedules, and how music is woven into early learning.
Step 3
Meet your child’s lead teacher
Before you commit, you’ll spend time with the specific teacher who would lead your child’s classroom, so you can ask about their approach to routines, transitions, and communication with parents.
Step 4
Submit application
and deposit
Once you’re ready, our front office team walks you through the enrollment packet and deposit, which reserves your child’s spot in the classroom.
Step 5
First day
We schedule a soft-start check-in the week before your child’s first full day, so your child (and you) know what to expect — drop-off routine, what to bring, and who to ask for.
If your preferred age group is full, we’ll place your child on our waitlist and give you an honest estimate of timing based on current openings — see the Available Openings section below.
Tuition by Age
Tuition at Drool of Rock Owings Mills is structured by age group, reflecting the staffing ratios and curriculum depth each stage requires — a pattern common across quality early-education providers.
Tuition varies depending on whether your child attends full-time or part-time, and whether you enroll for a full calendar year or a school-year schedule. Because rates can shift with enrollment and season, we share exact tuition figures directly with families rather than publishing them — this lets us walk you through any current promotions, sibling considerations, or schedule options that might apply to your family.
Available Openings
Classroom openings at Drool of Rock Owings Mills change throughout the year as families enroll, graduate between age groups, or relocate. Rather than publishing a fixed number that goes stale, we keep this section updated periodically to reflect real-time availability by age group — Infant, Toddler, Preschool, and Pre-K.
If your child’s age group shows limited or no current openings, we recommend joining the waitlist as early as possible. Waitlist movement depends on classroom size and turnover, and our front office team can give you a realistic estimate of timing when you call or tour.
Families whose preferred age group is full at our Owings Mills location are welcome to consider our sister location in Cockeysville, which may have earlier availability.
