NIM’s Early Learning Alliance offers you a convenient One Stop Shop to open (or expand upon) your own childcare program in Philadelphia.
If you do childcare work or are considering starting your own Childcare Program, NIM can help you take advantage of government funding to create a dynamic, licensed Philadelphia Childcare Program.
Below are the three options we can assist with:
- Family Childcare: 1-6 children in your home
- Group Childcare: 7-12 children in your home
- Center Childcare: Full day programs, after school programs, part day programs, and programs located in schools, recreation centers, faith based locations as well as community centers and privately owned/operated sites
Our organization can provide you with resources on licensing, zoning, regulations and standards. Additionally, our dedicated staff members will personally help you negotiate the CITY and STATE requirements to open a childcare facility, family day care, after school program, or faith based program, which will not only ensure that your children are in the safest environment possible, but will also attract discriminating parents to your business. Click here to Get Started and to find important documents you will need.
We have office hours in various locations around the city, and informed, helpful staff members ready to assist you in finding your way around CITY and STATE regulations.
Please call us with questions or to get information about attending our free childcare start-up workshops. We now offer phone, email and office consultation in English, Spanish, Russian and French.To view the Professional Development Calendar and dates of upcoming OSS programs,
