Klickitat County Childcare Committee is offering free supply kits to those working through the steps to open a new at-home or center-based childcare in Klickitat County.  Five kits are available to help reduce startup costs.  The kits offer new providers various supplies for caring for children, including essentials like diapers, wipes, a bottle warmer, child-safe silverware, plates, and bowls.  The addition of equipment like sleeping mats, an activity table, a child-sized toilet seat, and a high chair will help new providers save money.  A locked medicine cabinet and a gift certificate to purchase a certified fire extinguisher also come with the kit.  Those actively working on a licensing application with the Washington Department of Children, Youth, and Families will qualify to receive a kit while supplies last.  Contact kccc@wagap.org to learn more about how to obtain a supply kit.
