How this list is made: Chandler daycares whose Arizona record says they accept child care subsidies, plus those that say they accept assistance. The Arizona license list we load does not record subsidies, so here this list has daycares that say they accept child care assistance. Accepting assistance says nothing about a daycare's own prices. A daycare without this tag may still accept assistance; ask.

How do I apply for child care assistance in Arizona?
Apply through Arizona's child care assistance program, run by the Arizona Department of Economic Security. Income limits change each year, so check the current limits on the state's site.

How does child care assistance work?
Each state runs a child care assistance program, paid for in part by the federal Child Care and Development Fund. Families who qualify by income, and usually by working, looking for work or going to school, get help paying a daycare that accepts it; the help is often called a voucher or subsidy. Most families pay a share called a copayment, set by the state. Apply through the Arizona child care assistance office.
