How To Submit Your Program Information To the Resource and Referral Data Bank

All family child care homes, child care centers, and preschool programs that are Licensed, Religiously Exempt or Voluntary Registered are eligible to have their complete program information entered into the Preschool Partners Resource and Referral Data Bank. This is a free service to all regulated providers in Newport News and Hampton. Once your program is listed in the data bank, any parent or caretaker who is searching for child care or preschools will have a free, single point of access to obtain information about programs that may meet the needs of their children. Parents will enter search criteria and will be given a list of possible child care or preschool resources.

This service does not recommend any program and does not guarantee quality of care. It is the parents’ responsibility to contact providers, assess the programs, and make an informed choice. This is an opportunity for parents and providers to communicate in order to agree on how to best meet the needs of children.

To become part of the Preschool Partners data bank, child care providers have several options. You can click on the link to the child care provider survey form and download the form to be completed with your program information. You can mail the form to us or bring it to our office at 321 Main Street, Suite A, Newport News, Va. 23601. If you have questions, our staff will be happy to make an on site visit to assist you. Please contact Donna Bock or Patti Kernodle at 757-240-2731.
