There is no military child care center in the Kansas City
area. Marine Corps Family Child Care is available in the R-G housing
area. Marine Corps Family child care is care provided by military
family members in their Marine Corps housing unit. All Family Child
Care providers are certified by the Commanding Officer of the Marine Corps
Support Activity. Providers undergo background screening, home
inspections, and on going training on child development and infant/child CPR and
First Aid Certification. Family Child Care staff provide oversight
and technical assistance, ensuring the homes meet Marine Corps
standard. Each home receives a regular unannounced inspection by the
Family Child Care staff. These standards protect the safety and
well-being of our children. Military housing policy requires that no child under
the age of 12 be left alone without mature supervision.
