CCR&R Services for Families

Finding Child Care

Choosing the best program for your child can be a difficult decision-there are so many things to consider. Region 4 Child Care Resource & Referral can help make your decision easier. We provide child care referrals to help you find a program that meets your family’s unique needs, and information on finding help paying for child care.

The child care referral process consists of:

  • Gathering family information, assessing need and preferences
  • Explaining types of child care available
  • Explaining regulatory requirements (Star Rated License)
  • Discussing the importance of making program visits
  • Discussing what a parent should observe (quality indicators) or ask during a program visit
  • Share information that may help pay the cost of care
  • Provide referrals to licensed or licensed-exempt, legally operating programs

*All personal information gathered for child care referrals is confidential and will not be shared. Some information (age, income, etc.) is used to report to funders who enable us to offer this free service.
