Care About Childcare

Serving child care needs in Carbon, Daggett, Duchesne, Emery, Grand, San Juan, and Uintah Counties.

Everyone benefits from quality child care: parents, providers, and most importantly, children. Care About Childcare is an exciting online program that the Utah Office of Child Care created in partnership with parents, child care providers, and many other early childhood stakeholders. More than a website, this system helps child care providers showcase the quality in their programs, and gives parents information that will allow them to make good choices for their families. The program does this by matching a family’s specific needs to a child care provider’s specific strengths. The website also provides links to child care and child development resources.
