For the Gazette
PORTAGE COUNTY – Do you have a passion for helping children and families? Join us to learn how you can turn caring for children into a business. Childcaring, your local child care resource and referral, is offering free virtual information sessions on Child Care Start Up Aug. 26 (12:30-2:30 p.m.) or Oct., 20 (6:00-8:00 p.m.).

Do you have questions like:

What are the benefits to becoming regulated?

What classes or training do I need to get started?  What would I charge the families?

We can help you get answers to your questions. Register for one of the upcoming virtual information sessions by calling Childcaring at 1-800-628-8534 or scan the QR Code. Registration for the Aug. 26 session ends Aug. 19.

Start-Up Grants are Available

Since 2017, over $20,000 in Start-Up Grants has been allocated to child care providers in our service delivery area. Eligible providers have used the funding to purchase equipment, materials, and classes required to obtain regulation (ie: fencing, safety gates, developmentally appropriate materials for a variety of age groups, smoke detectors, etc.). Contact Childcaring to learn more about start-up grant eligibility. If you became regulated within the past three months you may be eligible to apply.

For more information contact Childcaring at 1.800.628.8534 or email: [email protected]
