Program Support

Child Care Resource can offer providers support in many ways.  We have dedicated staff to assist you throughout your child care career

Mentoring

“The care of young children is among the most important kinds of work there are. Whether it takes place in child care centers, family child care homes, or other settings, the daily work of teachers and providers makes a lasting difference for children, families, and our society as a whole. Quality child care matters-And research has repeatedly shown that the key to quality child care is the presence of well-trained, well-supported and well-compensated care giving adults.”
~The Early Childhood Mentoring Curriculum

There are currently no mentoring programs in place specifically for child care providers. If you know of one, please let us know!  If you are looking for mentoring opportunities for a young person in your life, you may contact MENTOR Vermont
