Finding childcare can be one of the most challenging
tasks. This listing is by no means complete nor will it ever
be a massive listing of providers - I have mainly listed services
and tools for parents to research childcare or place an ad. I
don't know the history of each individual service or listing
- it is a good idea and the responsibility of the parent to interview,
check backgrounds, tour facilities, and/or call references for
any potential child care provider.

Coordinated Child Care - "The Resource and Referral Department
maintains a database of all regulated child care programs within
our five county service delivery area (Columbia, Dane, Dodge,
Jefferson, and Sauk counties and the Ho-Chunk Nation). Referral
Specialists assist parents with their search for early care
and education for their children. Information from our database
provides parents with a current list of regulated child care
professionals that allows parents to locate care to meet their
specific needs. 4-C Referral Specialists also provide enhanced
referrals to enable single and/or low-income parents to enter
AODA outpatient treatment by providing child care funding."
 Wisconsin's
Licensed Child Care Search - Wisconsin's
Licensed Child Care Search contains information on the location
and regulatory history of the almost 6,000 child care centers
licensed by DCF. This information is provided to assist you in
locating and learning more about licensed child care centers
in your area. Through the Licensed Child Care Search, you can
search for licensed child care by county, city, zip code or facility
name. Once you have located a child care center, you can review
the facility's licensing information including compliance history
and enforcement actions.
Cultural
Care Au Pair - Today's
busy parents face many concerns. Among those challenges
is the search for safe and dependable childcare that is
both flexible and affordable. For many parents the solution
is hosting a Cultural Care au pair. Cultural Care Au Pair's
childcare and cultural exchange program offers families
flexible, live-in childcare with a unique international
perspective. Your au pair lives with you as a member of
your family and your children benefit from a one-to-one
relationship with a committed and caring live-in companion.
All Cultural Care au pairs are between the ages of 18 and
26, proficient in conversational English and have documented
childcare experience. At an average cost of $300/week,
this type of childcare option is one of the cheapest ones
in the great Madison Area.
