We're all one big military family, and that means we're here to help. Find a child care provider here!
Family Child Care (FCC) programs consist of in-home care provided by licensed and affiliated providers whose goal it is to nurture the child through care, understanding, love, and affection. FCC homes provide a relaxed atmosphere where a child can develop to his/her full potential. Providers encourage children to grow intellectually, physically, socially, and emotionally through a daily routine of play and recreation.
Family Child Care is care of a child or children in the home of another family. The need for quality care for military families has never been greater.
As child care needs increase, Family Child Care is playing an important role in the care of our children.
If you live in base housing and provide child care in your home for more than ten hours a week on a regular basis, you must be licensed by the United States Air Force.
Note: if you care for 2 children for 5 hours each, that equals 10 of child care.
If you live off-base and are the spouse of an active duty member or a retiree you may be apart of the FCC Program. You may become an affiliated provider, if you regularly care for at least one military dependent (other than your own child) in your home. You must meet the same requirements and will receive the same benefits as an on-base provider.
For additional information about becoming an affiliated provider, contact the FCC office.
The license and training is transferable to other bases. This allows Family Child Care Providers to help other Air Force families.
The Maxwell AFB Family Child Care Office is currently recruiting new providers. Prospective providers are trained, screened, and approved by applicable agencies. The Family Child Care Panel meets to approve or disapprove applicants. All orientation trainings are free and are held in the Family Child Care Office. Anyone who is interested in becoming a licensed Family Child Care Provider should call the Family Child Care Office at (334)-416-2220.
