Two child care centers in the New River Valley are now available for backup child care through Care.com:

Backup childcare may be used when your regular care is not available during work hours. The cost for in-center care is $15 per day, per child.

In addition, camps may now be reimbursed through the Child Care Reimbursement option for backup care. When you file your claim, choose the “camps” option. Please note that this is for backup care only; it may not be used for regular child care.
