Morris Child Development Center for Infants and Toddlers. Founded by Earlene and Ernest Morris in 1965, The Morris Development Center for Infants and Toddlers was a Black-owned daycare located in the historically African American Bagley neighborhood in Detroit. In 1965, the center was the only daycare in Michigan licensed to care for infants and toddlers. The center survived and flourished; it allowed neighborhood mothers to work or go to school and served as a meeting place for community activists in the late 1960's and 1970's.
