Child Care Resource & Referral (CCR&R)
(no cost to parents or providers)
Thousands of Internet searches each year
500 calls per month
100 workshops for child care employees
CCR&R is a statewide program that helps families find quality child care. The staff fields phone calls and internet inquiries from parents. Once we know the child’s age, personality, special needs, and the general vicinity the parents are looking in, we can give them a list of child care centers and homes to research. We also give parents a checklist to use when visiting a child care center or home. Legally, we cannot personally recommend any child care center or home. CCR&R also provides training and resources for child care providers.
