Child Care Referral Disclaimer
Child Care Choices believes parents are best able to choose child care for their children.  We help parents find the most child care options and encourage them to use their knowledge as they make their choice.  We urge parents to interview and check references before leaving a child in any provider's care.  It is the parents’ decision in who they decide for child care. All of the information we have for providers, we have received either from them or from other public sources.  We do not guarantee the information about the providers nor do we license, endorse or recommend any of them.

Confidentiality
Child Care Choices believes parent and provider files are confidential.  Only necessary staff will have access to parent or provider files.  The only exception is with government agencies.  Only staff involved in the referral process will have access to information provided by the parent.  All conversations are kept private within the office.  Staff will be courteous and respectful to all customers. 

Provider Complaint Policy
If you have questions or concerns about any provider after contacting or meeting them, we would welcome your feedback.  We would also encourage you to contact the appropriate licensing and/or regulatory agency.  Contact information for those agencies are listed below.
