CDC resource and refferal can give you a list of approved FCC homes.

I know that, but you know not every caregiver is the same and word of mouth referrals usually carry a little extra weight, at least for ME they do.

True, you can always get references from the caregiver themselves. I dont believe alot of people use FCC here in 29. I have heard from multiple people that FCC isn't as big here as other bases. And when I was signing my child up for child care, she gave me a list of FCC homes and there were only a few. That was a year ago so maybe it has changed. I also don't see any homes with it posted when I go walking. In LeJeune, there were so many (almost every few houses was an FCC home) but here, I dont recall seeing even 1 in our housing area. Alot of people babysit illegally here, they are not as strict with it as other bases.

Not trying to be rude or anything, just trying to give you a heads up.

I wouldn't trust the references that caregivers provide themselves. They aren't always true references but friends doing a favor.

Not sure if useful, but I came across this in my own search for child care needs. Military can use Sitter City for free:

Page mentions "Certified CDH/FCC care providers"

I havent yet moved to 29, just prepping. I appreciate the feedback very much.

That's nice you say thank you. Generally by this point in the conversation the newbie has deleted their account lol.

I didn't even think of that. Sorry. I wouldn't use FCC because they dont have cameras in their homes.
