Welcome to PKL Cares Infant & Toddler Childcare Center

The Child help National Child Abuse Hotline Crisis counselors are here to support those concerned about or affected by child abuse and provide appropriate, individualized guidance for those that reach out. We can also help research additional resources that may be available. The hotline is staffed by live crisis counselors (not bots) who all have college education and life experience in working with child abuse, neglect, and maltreatment.

Anyone, including a child, who suspects child abuse or neglect, can make a report by calling 855-444-3911.

 The Office of Child Development and Care (CDC) supports low-income working families by providing access to affordable, high-quality early care and afterschool programs. To achieve this end, the office supports numerous efforts designed to assess and improve the level of quality across the spectrum of Michigan's early learning and care settings.  

CDC Call Center , call 866-990-3227 during the hours of 8:30am -12pm and 1:00p-4:30p EST Monday-Friday 

This program combines the caring power of parents, employers, and the State of Michigan to provide affordable, convenient childcare to working families. 

The cost is divided 3 ways. The employer covers 1/3 of the cost, the State of Michigan covers 1/3, and the parents cover the last 1/3.

This program is geared toward families that don't qualify for childcare assistance. By sharing the cost, this program seeks to increase and retain talent in the workforce.
