Looking For Child Care?
Child Care Resource & Referral, Inc. provides referrals to State Licensed or County Certified child care programs. Depending on the age of your child/ren, the hours you need care and the areas you are looking for care, we will provide profiles of regulated child care providers including both group centers and family child care homes.
The Provider Profile includes information about their hours of operation, capacity, environment, program, meals provided, and school transportation.
The provider profiles we send are referrals, we do not rate or recommend any child care programs. The referrals are not based on vacancies the providers might have.
