What is a Child Care Liaison?

Picture this: a bridge between families and the sometimes overwhelming world of child care. That’s a Child Care Liaison.

Equipped with a blend of knowledge about early childhood education and a passion for community service, they stand as the guiding light for many parents navigating the child care landscape.

Like Sarah, many parents have stories of Liaisons turning their anxiety into assurance. Did you know that thanks to these efforts, Missouri has seen a significant improvement in child care quality and accessibility?
