Childcare Operators

Launch Your Childcare Program in a Pre-Qualified Home Space

Finding a compliant, residential childcare space can be one of the biggest barriers to launching or expanding a childcare program. EPNL Estate Childcare Network helps remove that barrier.

We connect experienced childcare operators with homeowners offering suitable home spaces—so you can focus on delivering quality care.

Who This Is For

This program is designed for operators who:

  • Have childcare experience

  • Want to operate independently

  • Are willing to complete all licensing and compliance requirements

  • Value stable, long-term partnerships

What EPNL Provides

  • Access to potential home spaces

  • Structured partnership models

  • Coordination with homeowners

  • Clear expectations and term agreements

  • Ongoing partnership support

Operators remain fully responsible for program operations and compliance.

Licensing & Experience

During the application process, operators will be asked:

  • Have you held a childcare license before?

  • If yes, where (state/county)?

This helps EPNL assess experience and readiness, but licensing approval is always determined by governing agencies.

Partnership Commitment

  • 12-month minimum partnership required

  • Renewal options available

  • Terms finalized prior to launch
