Technical Assistance for Providers
As part of our Resource and Referral Funding Terms and Conditions, SNCS, as a CDE contractor, contacts each licensed facility annually (at a minimum) to inform them of our resources and offer technical assistance. 

SNCS assists providers with the following concerns:

  • Building the environment safe, child friendly, and child oriented.
  • Meeting the minimum requirements to care for young children.
  • Acquiring information on beneficial programs such as the Child Care Food Program.
  • Setting up the learning environment.
  • Developing a system of records maintenance.
  • Assist with and honoring your role as a business professional.
  • Questions and assistance with licensing, immunization, subsidy, health and safety, business needs.
  • Provide the Provider Notes Newsletter as a resource.
  • Questions and assistance from the child development team on specific issues (i.e., children who bite, tantrums, etc.).
