Childcare Search Services

With free access to online directories of more than a million caregivers and licensed childcare providers, military families living in the U.S. can find flexible childcare that fits their schedule, location and circumstance. These services supplement the childcare options funded by the War Department, giving military families more ways to find the care they need.

Two nationally recognized subscription services let you conduct customized searches to find quality care tailored to your family’s needs and preferences.

Whether you’re looking for flexible care in your home or child development, preschool and aftercare providers, you can customize your search accordingly.

Follow these steps for free access to these services:

1. Log in or create a Military OneSource account to visit our in-home childcare or licensed childcare center pages, depending on your preference.

3. Select “Copy” next to the code displayed.
4. Select “Accept and Proceed” to be taken to the external childcare service website.
5. Use your code to register with the childcare service. This account will be separate from your Military OneSource account.
6. For future searches, go directly to the childcare service website to search for providers and access care.

NOTE: You will need your unique code to access the childcare services every time you log in. If you received a code in the past, use that original code when returning for a new search.
