We are here to help you find the best possible child care provider!
Choosing who will care for your child is an extremely important decision. Finding an environment where you trust that your child will be safe, respected, and well-nurtured will relieve some of the stress and pressure that often comes with making this difficult decision.
Here are the first steps to getting started:
- Review the Getting Started packet which outlines the Infant Toddler process.
- Attend an upcoming Parent Information Session to learn more or call 703-352-3449 to schedule a phone interview with a member of our staff.
- Review the Online Provider List.
- Interview several of our providers.
- Become Part of Our Family.
Choosing a qualified provider
Although scheduling will be entirely between you and your provider, we can identify a select group of our providers for you to consider. This makes Infant Toddler a flexible and convenient alternative for your working family.
