DISCLAIMER

Child care referral services are provided to all persons requesting them regardless of income or other eligibility factors. The names of providers are referrals only and not recommendations. The referrals are based on information provided by the child care providers themselves. Options for Learning does not inspect the providers and cannot guarantee the accuracy of the information or the quality of the supervision your child will receive. The choice of your child's care provider is your responsibility.

Options for Learning strongly recommends that before placing a child in care, parents or guardians exercise their right and responsibility to review a potential child care provider's licensing history. As a parent or guardian, you have the right to get information about any substantiated or inconclusive complaints about a child care provider that you select for your child. This is a public record and is available at the facility.
