Child Care Aware is a non-profit initiative committed to helping parents find the best information on locating quality child care and child care resources in their community. We do this by raising visibility for local child care resource and referral agencies nationwide and by connecting parents with the local agencies best equipped to serve their needs.
The Child Care Bureau is dedicated to enhancing the quality, affordability, and availability of child care for all families.

Representing childcare providers across the state, MLFCCA keeps members informed of legislative issues that affect childcare providers, offers unique trainings and resources to members, and advocates on our behalf.
