While Children First continues to be stable and strong, it is with such a heavy heart that we heard of yet another provider in our area closing. The pandemic has been very hard on our industry, and South Hadley alone has experienced serious capacity loss. Children First will not have the capacity to meet the increased demands of so many in need.

To get on CF’s Wait List, please complete the on-line intake form here found on our website. PLEASE CHECK YOUR SPAM FOLDER for any future correspondence from us. Once you are on our Wait List, you will remain there until you ask to be removed or do not respond to both an email and a phone attempt to contact you.

Please note that our enrolled families are using a texting app to communicate with us and that the phones are not always staffed since administrators are wearing many hats right now. Email communication for the Wait List is preferred at this time.

CF does not offer infant care, and our toddler classroom is already enrolled for the upcoming year (2021-2022). We are working on enrolling our preschool classrooms for 2021-2022. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE!

We also urge every family to use the childcare finder on the State website as well: https://eeclead.force.com/EEC_ChildCareSearch
