These are challenging times for everyone, but especially for parents who are on the front lines of the COVID-19 crisis. For them, high-quality and reliable child care is absolutely vital. If you are looking for care, our Emergency Child Care directory lists local providers who are registered to provide emergency child care and currently have openings.
And to all those parents working essential jobs right now — thank you for all you do.
If you’re a child care provider who would like to be added to the list, contact info@pdxparent.com.
