How can you find Parents (and their Children) for your Child Care Center?
The Day Care Council of New York over the past 10 years has funded five organizations in New York State to provide child care resource and referral (CCR&R) services in New York City – Child Care, Inc., Child Development Support Corporation, Chinese American Planning Council, Committee for Hispanic Children and Families, and the Day Care Council of New York – operate as a working partnership referred to as the New York City Child Care Resource and Referral Consortium.
These agencies are a network of partners looking to support the highest quality of child care for all New York families. You can go to the Day Care Council of New York website and find resources close to you. Get on their lists, make certain your information is current and up to date, and then parents can more easily find you. CCR&Rs also provide child care providers with professional development opportunities in early care and education, mentoring, assistance with starting a child care business in New York, training on New York’s licensing rules, and regulations and guidance for operating a quality child care program.
