Family Child Care (FCC)

The Family Child Care Program (FCC) provides child care services for eligible active duty, civilians, reservists, and base contractors. FCC homes operate Monday through Sunday at varying hours to meet work schedules.

The benefits of using a licensed child care provider as well as becoming one is rewarding. Individuals desiring to become a licensed provider have the opportunity to stay at home with their children while earning an additional income. Providers receive training in child development, positive guidance, nutrition, CPR, and first aid. The FCC program provides a resource center which offers a wide variety of toys, furniture, books, and equipment to operate an FCC home.

Parents choosing licensed family child care have the confidence of knowing the provider has been properly trained in CPR, first aid, safety, and food handling, and is continually monitored. The FCC coordinator, fire department, Safety Office, and Military Public Health regularly inspect homes. Another benefit of using the FCC program is that sibling groups can remain together in a relaxed family setting with individual attention. It's also convenient!

A list of FCC licensed child care providers is published in the At Your Service Magazine. Contact the FCC office about extended child care, programs for PCS, volunteering, extended duty, and returning from deployment
