Federal Daycare Grants

I was interested in federal daycare grants, so I did a search on Google to find out if there are federal daycare grants available and what the particulars are about them. The top result for federal daycare grants took me to a website called Child Care Online. I immediately dislike this site.

I think that very few things irritate me more than people that name things with misspellings to make things look cute, as if a child had done it. The Child Care Online website has five “korners” on their website. They were for parents, caregivers, organizations, employers and schools.

This website does talk about daycare grants. It really stresses that for-profit daycare centers are not likely to receive daycare grants. Daycare grants usually go to not-for-profit daycare centers. They have a link to an informative article entitled “8 Important Steps to Obtaining Grants for Your Child Care Business” and it is described as a no-holds-barred, comprehensive article will get you started on your search for daycare grants.

The US Department of Health and Human Services’ Administration for Children and Families had a website show up in my Google search for federal daycare grants. They have a heading called Funding Opportunities and another called Grant & Funding Awards. There is information about daycare grants available at phone numbers listed on the website.

The next result in my search for federal daycare grants led me to one of those annoying websites trying to sell information. It has been my experience that these people give you information you could find for yourself. The information on the webpage told me that they had lots of information to give me about federal daycare grants, if I’d send them some money.

The next result for a Google search for federal daycare grants took me to another site that offers information for a fee. This site looked better than the first site I’d visited; it had a much more user-friendly graphic interface.
