The announcement on Thursday says the center could open as soon as January 2012.
The Navy is scheduled to close its school and turn the campus over to UGA in 2011. The university plans to develop a medical campus on the property, and will include a child care center in two buildings on the 58-acre site about two miles from the main UGA campus.
A consultant the university hired to study the need for child care on campus issued a report in 2008 that estimated faculty and staff need 200 childcare slots for their children, plus students' children could fill another 40.
