Family child care providers, licensed and affiliated, are needed to offer care for children with special needs during non-traditional hours, i.e., evening, swing and mid shifts—and in our Expanded Child Care Program during weekends. If you know of a military spouse who would like to "play" all day while making extra income for the family, please contact Kimberly Fairbanks at DSN 468-6741 or commercial 926-6741.
Any individuals caring for other families' children a total of more than 10 hours a week on a regular basis must be licensed to provide care in on-base quarters. If you are NOT licensed and are providing care on a regular basis, the mission support group commander may revoke your housing privileges.
Free Child Care for Volunteers and PCS!
The FCC program offers 20 hours of child care per child for families to use within 60 day of arriving or departing the base. 40 hours of care per month is authorized for volunteers. Both programs require eligibility certificates from Family Support Center before making reservation with the provider.
FCC Resource and Referral Service
Is available to parents to learn more about child care options and availability at the CDCs and in the FCC program. Parents may visit the FCC office from 9 - 10 a.m. Monday through Friday specifically for this service.
Returning Home Care Available!
Extended Duty Care is available to provide 16 hours of free child care to active duty members and Air National Guard & Air Reserve members returning from deployment. Care is for children under age 12 and must be used within 30 days of return from deployment. While this free child initiative is for OEF deployments, members supporting other deployments of 30 days or more may also be considered for this support. The Military Personnel Flight or member's command section verifies member's eligibility prior to reserving child care for the family.
Extended Duty Care (EDC)
Do you work extended duty hours and have concerns about quality child care? EDC may be the answer for you. Contact the FCC Coordinator for the parent statement and the AF Form 1181, Patron Registration. You may pre-register for the EDC program.
Home Community Care
Home Community Care is offered to ANG/AFR dual military parents, single military parents, and military parents married to a civilian working spouse are eligible to use the program. This program is available for primary UTA weekends. Care during secondary UTA (SUTA) weekends and two-week annual duty may be provided on a space available basis only.
Providers have openings for
non-traditional care as well as full-time care
Parents who work swing and mid-shifts may participate in the AF Subsidy Program, which allows parents to pay the family child care provider the same rate as charged by the CDC for full-time care.
