Empire State Family Child Care Collaborative For Home-Based Child Care Providers in Suffolk County

The Empire State Family Child Care Collaborative is a free opportunity for licensed family day care and group family day care providers in Suffolk County to strengthen and grow their businesses.

Participants join a Family Child Care Network and receive free child care management software to simplify attendance, record-keeping, and billing—helping reduce administrative burden and improve operations. Providers also benefit from one-on-one and group business coaching, along with access to valuable resources such as retirement planning and telehealth supports.

This collaborative is designed to support both the business and well-being of home-based providers so they can focus on delivering high-quality care.

Participation is free, but space is limited.
