MilitaryChildCare.com

This secure Department of Defense (DoD) website provides a single gateway for you to find comprehensive information on military-operated or military-approved child care programs worldwide. With MilitaryChildCare.com, you create an account and maintain a household profile that you can access at any time from any location.

Child Care Aware® of America (CCAoA)

CCAoA works with a national network of more than 400 child care resource and referral (CCR&Rs) agencies and other partners to ensure that all families have access to quality, affordable child care. CCAoA also provides child care assistance for military families through Fee Assistance and Respite Child Care Programs.

Kinderspot App

Kinderspot's intent is to help facilitate short-term care for eligible families by giving visibility to available weeks that have been offered by verified spot holders at participating CDCs.

In-Home Child Care Fee Assistance Pilot Program

The Defense Department recognizes that child care is a critical support for military families with children. Our military parents cannot be focused and available for their missions without safe and reliable care in place for their children.

2024 Child and Youth Services Fee Schedule

This information has been collated by The Operation Child Care Project from memos released surrounding the updates to the SY 2023-2024 Department of Defense Child Development Program Fee Policy.
