Child Care Health Consultant Network

We partner with the Kansas Department of Health and Environment to launch the next phase of consultations for licensed child care programs.

The Ideas & Solutions blog is intended to provide a forum for the discussion of child care and early education issues and ideas. We hope to provoke thoughtful discussions within the field and to help those outside the field gain a better understanding of priorities and concerns.

Get Connected

Child Care Aware of Kansas is excited to partner closely with the Kansas Department of Health and Environment team to launch the next phase of consultations for licensed child care programs!

High-quality Child Care Health Consultations are available to help child care providers identify ways to support health, safety and wellness in the program.

Providers will receive consultation services from an assigned consultant in their public health region. The role of the Child Care Health Consultant is to promote the health and development of children, families and staff and to ensure a healthy and safe child care environment.

Licensed child care providers may request consultation services at cchc@ks.childcareaware.org

  • Child Care Aware of Kansas

    Child Care Aware of Kansas connects everyone with a stake in child care — parents, child care providers, businesses, local and state leaders, and community members — to the information and ideas they need to take action. We provide opportunities, connections, and support for Kansans to envision what a better child care system can look like for them. Working within a network of Child Care Resource & Referral agencies, we also connect caregivers and providers to the information and support they need.
