Description: Lincoln Childcare Center is the only non-profit that provides vital Quality Childcare to low-income families on a sliding scale. The need for the services we provide is great, because for many in the Fort Smith Area, affordable childcare does not exist. As a result, many small children are often left at home under the supervision of older siblings who should be in school. Worse yet, there are cases where these children are left alone at home.
Additional Information: ABC Facility; Level 3 Better Beginnings;Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
