Can the Referral Counselors at the Child Care Council recommend a child care provider?
No. The Referral Counselors encourage parents to visit many child care providers, including providers who are Family Child Care, Group Family Child Care or Child Care Centers in order to find the child care setting that best meets the needs of the family. To find out more about the different types of child care settings, and to get a printable parent’s day care checklist, please visit the Parents Page of our website. You can also request a free pamphlet covering topics such as New York State Licensing requirements, how to monitor the quality of your child’s care, and more.
