If you are interested in becoming a state licensed Child Care Provider you may contact the State Voluntarily Registered Consultant, Cynthia Carneal Heflin at 804-726-7140 or via e-mail at Cynthia.Carneal@dss.virginia.gov if you are interested in becoming voluntarily registered. These avenues offer the provider the opportunity to participate in the USDA food program which offers reimbursement for the food provided to the children in care and will also get the provider’s name on the State Social Services website as a provider. You may also visit the Virginia Department of Social Services Licensing website or The Planning Council’s website.
Additionally, if you are interested in becoming an approved vendor of subsidized childcare you may submit an
application.
