Child Care: Campus Child Care Homes Network
The Campus Child Care Homes Network serves faculty, staff, and students who need child care in the greater Ann Arbor area. These independent providers are state licensed to provide care in their own homes, offer some priority/flexibility to UM families, and work toward early childhood training/educational goals and possible accreditation through the National Association for Family Child Care (NAFCC). In return, U-M offers provider training, support, and resources to enhance quality in the child care programs.
NATIONAL ACCREDITATION NEWS!
Six Campus Network providers were awarded NAFCC accreditation in 2008-09, an achievement earned by fewer than 1% of home child care providers in Michigan. In addition, three more Campus Network providers have acquired their Child Development Associate (CDA) credentials. Congratulations to them, and best wishes to several others who are actively pursuing these exceptional goals!
