My children had a great night! My oldest knew exactly where to go when he saw Pilot the Eagle sitting outside the event and ran right in. They had fun and begged to go back when we left. It was so nice to know they were not far away and well taken care of during our event.
Special Ops Child Watch · Service area
Serving Lexington Park, MD
SOCW travels south on MD-5 through Waldorf into St. Mary's County and reaches Lexington Park in roughly 1 hour 15 minutes from Clinton.
Lexington Park anchors St. Mary's County where the Patuxent River bends toward the Chesapeake, and NAS Patuxent River defines the rhythm of daily life here. The military and contractor community around Pax River runs deep: test pilots, naval aviators, defense engineers, and the families who move with them every few years. Special Ops Child Watch travels the MD-5 and MD-235 corridor to serve events on and near the installation, and SOCW has been on the ground at Pax River for events including the base air show. When a unit commander or Family Readiness Officer schedules a ball, retreat, or unit holiday party in St. Mary's County, SOCW brings a fully credentialed, fully staffed child watch team so every service member and spouse can walk in together.
Including Wildewood, Great Mills, California and the surrounding area.

Can Special Ops Child Watch staff events held on NAS Patuxent River?
SOCW has served events at NAS Pax River, including the base air show. Installation access requirements vary by event type and base policy, so coordinators should plan that coordination early. Call us at 202-702-2486 to walk through what your specific event needs.
How far in advance should we book SOCW for a Pax River ball or unit event?
Ball season and major installation events book up quickly in Southern Maryland. Reach out as soon as your event date is confirmed. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 12:30 PM Eastern.
Do parents pay separately for child watch at Pax River events?
No. Special Ops Child Watch is contracted by the event coordinator or unit command, not by individual families. Parents register their child once the event is confirmed and booked. Call us to learn how the process works for your specific event.
