The Council's Child Care Resource & Referral (CCR&R) program provides services for parents, businesses and child care providers. Our motto is "Your Local Resource As They Grow", and we strive to provide the best service to our community possible. When a parent calls looking for a child care provider, our  Referral Specialist will give him/her the utmost attention by asking detailed questions about their child care needs - what town, school district, age of child, special needs, even dietary concerns. Our goal is to give providers as close a match to their request as possible and as many choices as available. Tips on interviewing providers and background information, programming, as well as any violation history can be given at this time - or the parent may prefer to interview some providers and get back to us (see Referral Request form on the left).  

Businesses can be assured that when they refer employees to us for their child  needs we will act in a professional and caring manner. We understand how child care issues can affect the workplace!
