The Air Force has required individuals to become licensed if they are providing care for a child in their home. An unlicensed FCC Provider has 60 days to obtain a license after being contacted by the FCC Coordinator. Failure to comply could result in disqualification to a FCC home and/or losing base housing privileges. Becoming a Family Child Care Provider allows people to a wonderful Support Network. It is our goal to ensure families are provided with quality child care. During the license training period, trainees cannot have children in their home. Let us serve you by providing assistance in becoming a licensed provider and joining a wonderful group of child care professionals.
