The Importance of Parental Choice in Child Care

Every child and every family is unique, which is why parental choice is a core principle of SFCS programs. Once enrolled, families are empowered to select the child care setting that best fits their needs—whether that’s a licensed center, a family child care home, or care provided by a trusted relative.

This flexibility ensures that families can align child care with their schedules, values, and the individual needs of their children. For children with special or exceptional needs, this freedom is especially meaningful, allowing parents to choose an environment that supports their child’s growth and comfort.

Parental choice helps families feel confident, supported, and in control of their child’s care.

Understanding the Solano Eligibility List (SEL)

The Solano Eligibility List (SEL) is often misunderstood, but it plays an essential role in ensuring that child care support reaches the families who need it most. Unlike a traditional waiting list, the SEL prioritizes families based on eligibility and level of need, not how long they’ve been on the list.

This means that every application is evaluated with fairness and purpose. As funding becomes available, SFCS pulls directly from the SEL to determine which families qualify for enrollment. While placement isn’t guaranteed, joining the list is the first—and most important—step toward accessing support.

If child care assistance could benefit your family, submitting your application puts you on the pathway to potential services.
