At Playtime Academy Daycare, we believe every child deserves access to quality early education and care, regardless of their family’s financial situation. That’s why we are excited to accept payments through the Iowa Child Care Assistance (CCA) program. Here’s what this means for you and your family:
About Iowa Child Care Assistance (CCA):
The Iowa Child Care Assistance program, often abbreviated as CCA, is designed to help low-income families pay for child care. It’s part of a broader initiative to support working parents and guardians by subsidizing the cost of quality child care services.
Benefits of CCA at Playtime Academy:
- Financial Relief: The CCA program can significantly reduce the out-of-pocket expenses for child care, making it more affordable for families to provide their children with enriching early educational experiences.
- Quality Child Care: By accepting CCA, we ensure that financial constraints do not prevent children from benefiting from our nurturing and educational environment.
- Support for Working Families: This assistance supports parents in maintaining employment or attending job training, knowing their children are in good hands.
How It Works:
- Eligibility: Families must meet certain income and employment criteria to be eligible for CCA. You can apply through your local Department of Human Services office.
- Application: Once you’ve determined eligibility, the next step is to apply for the assistance. We can guide you on where to start and what documentation you might need.
- Enrollment: After approval for CCA, you can enroll your child at Playtime Academy. We’ll coordinate with the program to ensure that your child care services are covered.
- Billing and Payments: We handle the billing process with the CCA on your behalf, making it seamless for you. Your co-payment, if any, will be communicated clearly to you.
