Published

on

Virginia’s First Lady Pam Northam visited the Like Arrows Learning Center in Front Royal on July 21, 2021, as part of Childcare Access Month. The Royal Examiner’s camera was there for her visit. Our publisher Mike McCool spoke to the First Lady about her passion for early childhood education. He also spoke with Stacy Williams, the Director of the Like Arrows Learning Center.

Her visit comes as the state is expanding access to affordable childcare. For more information, visit Child Care VA.

The Child Care Subsidy Program assists families in paying child care costs for children under age 13 who are not eligible to attend public school during the part of the day when public education is available, or children with special needs under age 18 who reside with the applicant. If you are eligible and are approved for services, the Subsidy Program can pay a portion of your child care costs directly to the child care provider.

Like Arrow Learning Center is a state-licensed child day center providing quality care through their Infant Program to their PreK Program as well as Before and After School for K-5th grade.
