Kindergarten Registration!

When registering your child for kindergarten, a birth certificate is required as part of the enrollment process. This document helps verify your child’s age and ensures everything is ready for the upcoming school year.
Uh oh… can’t find it?
No worries—we’ve got you covered!
If your child was born in Wake County, getting a copy of their birth certificate is quick and easy. You can request one online or in person at the Register of Deeds office or at any of the four Wake County Regional Centers.
