The BVSD Community Schools Licensed Child Care Handbook provides relevant links, protocols and other details for ALL licensed child care programs (EC, PSE, SAC, YMCA, ECE) operating in BVSD schools in 2020-21. The handbook is subject to revisions as necessitated by public health and the changing nature of the pandemic caused by COVID-19.

Child care monthly rates are based on the total number of school days and hours throughout the year, divided by the number of months covered. This keeps the monthly amount stable to help families plan, and the variation of child care days from month to month are averaged out.

The Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) provides financial assistance to eligible low-income families who need child care benefits for children from birth to age 12. If you are eligible, a portion of the total child care cost will be paid. You can find the CCAP checklist to submit to BVSD Child Care here.
