How it works
As members, parents earn mornings of childcare as workers
at Kids Care
Co-op. Members have the option of working
once a week (as a “Regular”) or once
every two weeks (as
an “Alternate”). Members earn four mornings of childcare for
each morning of work (although the system depends upon parents not using all of
their mornings of childcare every week). Kids
Care Co-op is licensed to care for twelve children each day at a ratio of one
parent worker to four children. Each day spaces are filled on a first-come,
first-served basis. Parents earn the right to reserve a space for their
child one day for each shift worked.
Enrollment
To fulfill state requirements of all
licensed daycare workers, member parents must become CPR and First Aid
accredited, and complete their Mandatory Reporting of Child Abuse classes,
within the first six months of starting work.
