Child-Care: Finding the Right Options for Your Family’s Needs
Child-Care: Transportation
Some childcare facilities can offer the parents transportation provided in the cost of the actual childcare. For instance Kindercare offers transportation within the local areas of the facility’s setting. This can be a valuable tool for those parents with school aged children and a hectic work schedule that does not allow them time to transport their own children. The transportation is usually a van that picks your child up from school and takes them to the daycare center, so the worry is off your shoulders. La Petite, Children’s World and Childtime learning also offers this feature in its childcare program.

Kids Park offers an hourly rate of $7.50 and a one time $25 registration fee. This daycare center offers play time that involves important social and learning skills.
Learning Enhancement is also a great place to go. They offer Ã?¯Ã?¿Ã?½enhanced’ learning in the subjects of foreign language, computers and music. They generally work with k-adult. It is $40 an hour but you must also commit to having six consecutive sessions once a week for six weeks.
