Where can I find child care for my child with a disability?

Where can I find child care for my child with a disability?

If your child is a Regional Center client, your Regional Center likely works with respite care agencies that can help you find a respite worker.

If your child is not a Regional Center client, or you find respite services inadequate for your needs, you can look for a private agency to help you hire a child care provider, or you can screen for a provider yourself on a job board site.
