Military Childcare
The Department of Defense recognizes that childcare for military families is one of the most critical military quality-of-life issues within the DoD. Choosing the right childcare is crucial; paying for it can be daunting on a limited budget and junior enlisted troops know all too well how difficult it can be to balance military duty with the financial realities of having a family.
Fortunately for military families, the Department of Defense provides affordable, income-based childcare options. These include:
- Child Development Centers
- After-school programs for school-age children
- Fee assistance for qualifying military families
