Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies (CCRRs) provide services to parents and day care providers in every county of New York State.

If you are looking for child care, the CCRR in your county is a great place to start. They will ask you about the kind of care you are looking for, the ages of your children, the hours of care you need and other specifics such as any special needs your child might have. Based on that information, they will be able to give you a list of providers that most closely meet your needs. Remember, though, this list is just a starting point - you will need to contact the provider to see if they have space for your child and you will want to visit the child care provider you select to make sure for yourself that this is the right match for you. The Office of Children and Family Services has a helpful brochure that you can read right on this web site (As you think about child care...) and a video on selecting quality child care. All CCRRs have a copy of this video, as do local departments of social services, and regional child care offices.

If you are a child care provider, or are thinking about becoming a child care provider, the CCRR can be an important resource for you as well. They provide technical assistance and training. If you are interested in providing family day care, the CCRR may also be able to provide you with start-up funding. Many CCRRs also maintain lending libraries of toys and equipment.

There are 34 CCRRs available in New York State. They are listed here alphabetically by the counties they serve:
