Child Care
Rethink how your child care agency serves children and families in need.
Reclaiming staff capacity
The child care crisis in the United States affects more than just individual families – it’s also a serious economic issue. Too often overlooked is the critical role child care plays in driving the economy. Access to high-quality, affordable child care fuels job growth, supports better outcomes for children, and boosts productivity in the workplace.
To realize and truly maximize the potential that child care offers, we must create a more modern, robust, customer-focused system that meets the needs of today’s families. Quite simply, it’s time to reimagine child care. But how can you and your team – already facing a staff capacity crisis and struggling to meet demand – find the time to modernize?
That’s where Change & Innovation Agency (C!A®) comes in. Our innovative, one-stop marketplace for child care helps agencies strengthen their support for both families and the child care providers they rely on.
