Watch our video on selecting a child care provider

You may be a parent searching for quality care for your child while you work, go to school, or receive job training. It’s hard enough to leave your child without the added worry of finding someone you can trust to provide the care your child needs and deserves.

Parents usually choose to seek a caregiver that provides quality child care for their child. Quality care is an arrangement that provides a child with warmth, love and guidance by a well-trained, well-informed, healthy, and experienced adult. It involves and encourages activities that will help children grow mentally, physically, emotionally and socially healthy. It also assures that basic health and safety measures are followed.

Remember that choosing the best caregiver for your child is not only a responsibility but a privilege as well. This decision will express your care and concern for the health, safety and well-being of your child when he/she is apart from you.
