What's In It for Me?
4C for Children provides free child care referrals to families by using information (vacancies, ages of children served, location, etc.) in the Child Care Program Portal. When your information in the database is accurate and complete, 4C for Children specialists are more successful in quickly matching and connecting families with your program. In addition, families searching for child care on their own can also more quickly match their needs with potential child care providers. For profit companies might charge hundreds of dollars for marketing leads but 4C for Children offers this service at no cost to you or the families searching for care. Watch this video to learn more.
