Description:
The 2015 Child Care Market Rate Survey was undertaken to determine the prices that licensed/registered child care providers charge parents for child care throughout New York State, and to use that data as the basis for establishing payment rates for the New York State Child Care Block Grant (NYSCCBG) subsidy program for low-income families. The payment rates are a ceiling for state and federal reimbursement for payments for child care services (Section 410-x(4) of the Social Services Law). Payments for child care services under the NYSCCBG must be only for the actual cost of care up to the applicable payment rate, also called "the market rates." It should be noted that the rates reported by child care providers are the prices that parents are charged for care. (author abstract)
