When a caretaker chooses a child care provider, there is generally a contract outlining what is expected of the family for situations of absences, holidays, vacations, and termination of services.
A contract detailing the conditions related to payment for unscheduled absences, holidays and vacations, as well as termination of services is often entered into between a caretaker and the child care provider chosen. The Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) is neither a party of nor subject to any contract or any terms therein included.
CCAP will not be paid while the provider is absent for any reason (e.g. medical, holiday, vacation, etc.), unless determined allowable the state office or unless absence is due to an emergency as determined in 400-28-80-25.
Providers must NOT charge CCAP caretakers more than they are charging their lowest charged private pay families.
