Child Care is more than baby-sitting; it is often time very complex. Issues range from when children should begin learning to the settings in which parents place their most treasured possession; from how much state involvement is too much to how much is too little. Using nationally recognized standards, we can provide answers to the most perplexing questions you may encounter as you navigate the maze of modern child care. </p> <p> Some of the quesitons we can answer:</p> <ul style="margin:20px"> <li>What is the current average rate for a particular age group>?</li> <li>How many child cares are there in Marion, Hamilton, Johnson or Hendricks County?</li> <li>What is the difference between a child care center and a ministry?</li> <li>Who can become a child care provider and who can not?</li> <li>Where is the highest concentration of child care businesses?</li> <li>Why do some providers offer CCDF and others do not?</li> <li>When do child care licenses expire?</li> <li>What is Paths to QUALITY?</li> <li>What does a quality child care program look like? </li> <li>What should I look for to ensure my child care is safe?</li> </ul> <p>For answers to media inquiries please contact</p> <p> <a href="mailto:mindyb@childcareanswers.com">Mindy Bennett - Director of Programs</a></p> <h2> Casey's Story:</h2> <p> Casey Williams chose a church-sponsored child care program in Indianapolis for her young daughter.
