Employers

Corporate Enhanced Services


Employees of corporations who have contracts with local CCR&Rs receive enhanced child care resource and referral service and ongoing support in "making child care work". Enhanced services typically include on-site work/family seminars, referrals to child care programs with confirmed vacancies, follow-up and continuing support for parents until they find satisfactory child care, and child care supply building. Child care resource and referral agencies work in partnership with your business to meet your employees' child care needs.

Why Get Involved?


The benefits to employers include: increased employee productivity; reduced absenteeism and turnover; enhanced employee recruitment efforts; strengthened public relations; and improved employee morale and loyalty. Ensuring employee peace of mind through quality child care will benefit your business at the bottom line.


Child care resource and referral agencies provide employers with:
  • Data on employee child care needs for planning future company initiatives.
  • Options for multi-site employers.
  • A cost effective employer supported child care option.

Responsible Parents are Responsible Workers


As families have changed, so has your workforce.
  • A majority of children live with two working parents or a single working parent.
  • 53% of the workforce is female; and 67% of mothers, with children younger than six, work.
  • Single fathers responsible for child care constitute one of America's fastest growing consumer groups.
All of these parents have one common concern... care for their children while they work. For parents, the overwhelming task of arranging child care creates stress and may affect productivity, work attitudes, absenteeism, longevity and a number of other critical areas bearing on employee performance.

How Does Child Care Resource & Referral Work?


Your employees receive:
  • Personalized consultations on their child care needs;
  • Child care information and referrals from a comprehensive database of regulated providers;
  • Information on selecting and evaluating quality child care programs;
  • Support during their child care search;
  • Ongoing recruitment of child care providers in areas where employees live and child care need exists;
  • Follow-up calls to ensure satisfaction with the parent's child care selection and our level of service.
