These regulated programs meet the minimum state health, safety and administration standards required to serve children. Program settings include licensed family child care homes and center based (school-age care, community-based preschool, public preschool and child care centers), and certified in-home aides.
  • Publicly Funded Child Care: Publicly Funded Child Care is a program that provides reimbursement to an eligible provider for the care of infants, toddlers, preschool children, and school children under age thirteen.

Families may receive assistance with child care costs by contacting their county Department of Job and Family Services to determine eligibility.
  • Step Up To Quality: Step Up To Quality is a tiered quality rating and improvement system designed to recognize the efforts of licensed early learning and development programs that take steps to improve the quality of services they provide. The search function retrieves a list of all early care and education programs with a quality rating equal to or higher than what is selected.
  • Head Start: Head Start provides early childhood education and other services to eligible children, birth to age 5, and their families.
