Building a universal child care system takes time; and while New Mexico has already made major progress, not every family will immediately be able to find a child care provider with room to accept a new child. To meet families’ needs, especially for infants, toddlers, and parents working non-traditional hours, ECECD is actively recruiting 1,000 registered home providers and 120 licensed homes in collaboration with our partners. Through low-interest loans and partnerships with business leaders, ECECD also hopes to license 55 more centers.
