ERC Playgroup - Come Play with Us! |
ERC provides a vital link between regulated child care programs and families needing child care. We supply parents with information about choosing high quality child care programs, and referrals to child care providers who match the criteria they supply. Providers who list their child care programs with our agency are contacted on a regular basis (about every six weeks) to update vacancy information, assuring that referral lists are accurate for families.
