Exciting News for 2025-2026!
Mrs. Erin's Family Child Care is thrilled to announce that we will be joining the ASPIRE PreK Program for the 2025-2026 school year! This initiative brings federally funded PreK into family child care homes, offering high-quality early education in a nurturing, small-group setting.
The ASPIRE PreK Program is designed to expand access to preschool for families who meet specific criteria. To qualify for state-funded PreK, families must meet ONE of the following:
-
Your family's household income does not exceed 300% of the Federal Income Eligibility Guidelines
-
Your family speaks a language other than English at home
-
Your child has an Individual Education Plan (IEP) or Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP)
-
Your child is homeless or lacks a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence
-
Your child is in formal or informal foster care
🔸 Spots will be limited in the first year of this program, so we encourage interested families to apply early.
Please Note:
-
Children must be 3 years old by September 1st 2025 or older to participate.
-
Wrap-around care (before/after PreK hours) will be available, but parents are responsible for this cost.
-
Child Care Scholarships are accepted and can help offset the expense of wrap-around care.
We are excited to partner with ASPIRE to provide equitable early learning opportunities for more children in our community. This program supports growth, development, and kindergarten readiness – all in the familiar, comforting environment of our family child care.
If you think your child may qualify, or if you'd like to learn more about this opportunity, feel free to reach out!
