WHY SHOULD I BE A PROVIDER? GOOD ANSWER: http://www.usna.edu/MWR/Child-YouthPrograms/NSAAnnapolis-CDH-AdLandscape-2011
CDH program offers self-employment as a child development provider to qualified persons living on and off base. Providers attend 20 hours of orientation classes including CPR and First Aid. National background checks are performed on all CDH providers. Their homes are inspected by the Naval Academy fire department, safety office and preventive medicine department. CDH program offers providers the opportunity to work in their home and watch their own children grow and develop while at the same time caring for children and earning an additional income. CDH rates are subsidized by DoD to be comparable to Child Development Center rates. CDH homes provide a warm, family setting in which children can participate in developmentally appropriate learning activities and home-life experiences. The children are able to build a trusting relationship with a provider who will foster their curiosity and creativity, provide guidance and give them the hugs they need.
CDH homes have space available for new children, ages 6 weeks to 12 years old. Some providers also offer evening and weekend drop-in care. If you need child care or would like to become a provider, call the CDH Monitor at 410-293-9395.

Youth Center Is Nationally Accredited
The Billy the Kid Youth Center is accredited by the Council on Accreditation (COA), an independent not-for-profit international accreditor of the full continuum of community-based behavioral health care and human service organizations. COA accreditation is an objective and reliable verification that provides confidence and support to an after school program's children and youth, parents, staff and community partners. COA accreditation process involves a detailed review and analysis of both a program's administrative operations and its service delivery practices, measured against national standards of best practice. These standards emphasize services that are accessible, appropriate, culturally responsive, evidence based, and outcomes-oriented. The process confirms that services are provided by a skilled and supported workforce and that all individuals are treated with dignity and respect. Congratulations to the staff at the Billy the Kid Youth Center!
The MWR Youth Center is a Member Affiliate Organization of the Boys and Girls Clubs of America and offers teens the opportunity to be members of Torch Clubs. Sponsored by Staples Foundation for Learning, Inc. and Staples, Inc., Torch Clubs help young people make a successful transition into late adolescence by fostering positive self-esteem and personal growth, building listening and speaking skills and reinforcing academic achievement. Torch Clubs also play a vital role in day-to-day running of a club, using critical peer-to-peer interaction to build positive character traits and interpersonal skills among pre-teens. Torch Club members become role models and ambassadors for promoting character, tolerance, diversity and inclusion, and each year, hundreds of Torch Club youth conduct service projects in their Clubs and communities proving they are on their way to becoming responsible, caring citizens and leaders. We want to provide our Navy youth with the same opportunities. If you would be interested in learning more about our program for your child, please contact Teen Coordinator at 410-293-4998 .
