Welcome to The Child Care Resource Network! Our primary objectives are to help families find quality child care, recruit and train child care providers, and to develop unique child care resource and referral programs for employers of working parents.
The Child Care Resource Network is a program of Right Steps Child Development Centers.

The Child Care Resource Network staff celebrate multiple approaches and points of view. We believe diversity, equity, and inclusion drive innovation, and that the difference in our opinions and cultures is vital to the success of our mission to, “provide and advocate for quality child care and early education.”
Diversity shapes us and makes us stronger individuals, more compassionate learners, and more effective leaders in our community. We welcome, value, celebrate, and respect individuals of all races, ethnicity, gender, age, disability, religion, and identities. We are committed to treating our staff, and the families, providers, and communities we serve with dignity and respect in an honest, open, fair, and friendly manner.
