Nevada Health and Human Services Guidance and Resources for Child Care Providers and Families
Carson City, NV – Nevada Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is working to make sure child care is available for first responders and health care workers by providing guidance and resources to child care providers during the COVID-19 crisis.
Governor Steve Sisolak identified child care centers as essential businesses that can stay open during this time if they are operating in accordance with requirements set forth by their licensing authorities and COVID-19 guidance.
Child care is critical for many of the families providing essential services during this crisis. DHHS recognizes the challenges facing child care providers who are staying open during this turbulent time.
“Many of Nevada’s child care providers have stepped up and are keeping their doors open. They are working with families who have lost jobs by keeping their slots open or providing discounts to families in need. Our state’s early childhood education professionals are providing stability and support to families who are struggling with all of the changes this pandemic is inflicting on hard working Nevadans,” said Governor Steve Sisolak. “To the child care providers keeping their doors open, we thank you. To families providing emergency services during this crisis, there are child care options available to help.”
The Governor and DHHS have created child care specific guidance and resource lists around the state’s COVID-19 child care response goals:
