MFN’s Maryland Child Care Resource Network helps working parents find quality, regulated child care, provides training and technical assistance to child care providers to increase the quality of care and to expand the capacity of programs; and compiles current data on the supply, demand, and cost of child care for policy makers.

Training programs for new and current childcare providers are available throughout the state. These sessions are approved by Maryland Child Care Administration and meet the minimum state requirements for increasing levels of professional development.
