After School Care
In many families both parents work full time. Unfortunately school hours and work
hours are rarely compatible. Luckily, many organizations have developed programs to fill
the gaps so your children do not have to be at home alone. The following list represents a
few programs available in the Chatthoochee Valley. Most daycares and many churches
offer before and after school care as well. For more information about area childcare, call
the CSU Child Care Resource and Referral Center at 706-569-3109 or 800-650-2102.
