Family Child Care homes are an integral part of CYS Services. These homes offer child care services to children whose parents have irregular duty hours, children who need small group settings, and those preferring care in a home setting. Family Child Care homes offer alternative care options for needs that cannot be easily met in center-based programs. Many prefer FCC due to it's home atmosphere where care is provided for no more than 6 children.

All Family Child Care Providers must register with CYS Services and be certified prior to opening their home for childcare. Certification classes are held quarterly. Please call for more information concerning becoming a Family Child Care Provider at 334-255-3446.
