Family Child Care Provider Services are essential in ensuring that the county has a strong provider base available for those receiving publicly funded child care assistance. This agency recruits for family/home based providers, provides pre-licensing orientation and education to potential providers, conducts necessary safety and quality inspections and ultimately recommends appropriate homes for licensure through Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS). Ongoing support, education and inspections occur for licensed family child care providers.

SUTQ recognizes and promotes learning and development programs that meeting quality program standards that exceed licensing health and safety regulations. The program standards are based on national research identifying standards that lead to improved outcomes for children.
