"When I applied for Child Care Assistance, I never felt judged through the enrollment process. Reaching out for help can be intimidating, especially when receiving free services. The agencies will treat your family with understanding, kindness, and respect."
"We were already struggling to pay monthly daycare fees. When I heard about the help through YMCA, I really didn't think I'd get the opportunity to be a part of the program since I was so late in the game to apply. I'm so relieved to be accepted into this program and get the monthly help we need to get by. It helps us catch up on other bills which we are behind in."
"As a single parent, working and going to school is challenging. And child care is so expensive. Thankfully, CDA provided me with the child care services I needed for my daughter. She now goes to a daycare near our house, where she loves her teachers and friends."
"It has been a challenging year, but I was so happy when I got a call from CDA. I have been able to work full-time while my two sons go to daycare and the after-school program. I wouldn't have been able to afford all the child care fees if it wasn't for CDA's help."
“TOOTRiS has been amazing! They were able to help me access affordable childcare in less than a week. The entire process was smooth and transparent. I kept in close contact with them to achieve a wonderful outcome for our family! Communication is key when working with TOOTRiS because they are truly mission-driven and excited about supporting families. I would highly recommend San Diego parents to explore their program.”
“I had to start a new job and could not afford child care for my 11-month-old son. I spent days researching options and calling around without any luck and I was very worried I could not start my new job. A friend told me about TOOTRiS. They were so helpful and fast to understand my situation and to help me enroll my baby. I am so grateful, I’m a single mom and without this help, I would not have been able to work.”
