Our Mission

It is the mission of Child Care Answers to ensure that the children of today and tomorrow are cared for in a professional and nurturing manner and that parents, child care providers and community leaders know the importance of their roles in the development of children.

How our Mission relates to:

Parents

  • We assist parents in finding quality child care that meets their specific needs. Through our database of over 1,400 providers, we assess their needs, and provide them with a list of child care providers suited to the individual needs of their children, their schedule, or any other of their unique requirements.

Providers

  • We assist providers through individual trainings in a multitude of disciplines ranging from infant and toddler care to the care of children with special needs. We provide non-formal Child Development Associate credential training, as well as help with finding other training to meet the needs of the child care provider's business.

Community Leaders

  • By keeping our local, state and federal leaders aware of the developments in the state of child care in Central Indiana; we allow them to see trends that will help them to make better decisions in regards to child care and the education of young children. We send reports to all of our community leaders on a regular basis thus fulfilling our mission.
