Lanai . . .  Got Licensed Family Child Care Providers ? ? ?

Lanai is now the only populated island in Hawaii that does not have a licensed family child care provider serving families.  There are many reasons why this may be.  But PATCH is here to help people interested in opening up their own home child care business and overcome those barriers.


If you, or anyone you know, is interested in becoming a licensed family child care provider in Maui County, please give Chelsea a call at (808) 249-0101 or Toll Free at 1-800-498-4145.

Families on Molokai and Lanai who have their children cared for by  licensed child care providers may qualify for the Department of Human Services "Child Care Connection" Financial Assistance. To see if you qualify, call 243-5866.

PATCH is currently recruiting for Licensed Family Child Care Providers on the islands of Molokai and Lanai. 

Unfortunately, there are no licensed family child care providers on Lanai, and only one on Molokai, and many families on these island are in need of childcare. 

If you become licensed, you could own your own business, and help parents who need child care.

Call Chelsea at (808) 249-0101 or Toll Free at 1-800-498-4145 for more information.
