Governor Abigail Spanberger signed bipartisan legislation creating the Employee Child Care Assistance Program, a new initiative that offers matching state funds to employers who help cover childcare costs for their employees. The legislation aims to lower childcare expenses for families, support early childhood educators, and improve access to high‑quality early learning programs across Virginia. Officials emphasized that affordable childcare is essential for family stability, workforce participation, and the state’s economic competitiveness.
Community Child Care Center is encouraged by Virginia’s continued commitment to strengthening early childhood education. As a program that has served families since 1971, we see every day how essential accessible, high‑quality childcare is for both children and working parents. Initiatives that expand affordability and support the early learning workforce directly benefit the families we serve and help ensure children across the Commonwealth have the strong start they deserve.
This kind of investment reinforces what we have always believed — that early childhood education is foundational to a thriving community. We are proud to be part of this work and remain dedicated to providing dependable, nurturing care that aligns with Virginia’s vision for stronger, more equitable opportunities for young learners.
