First 5 Solano offering childcare for essential workers, but only for Vallejo and Fairfield children

[Editor: Surely there are essential workers beyond Vallejo and Fairfield – in Benicia and throughout Solano County – in need of childcare.  The County’s First 5 statement (below) includes the following caveat: “If the current care settings listed above do not meet your needs, please still complete the intake form and we will explore alternatives to connect you to childcare.”  ANOTHER GOOD RESOURCE is Solano Family & Children’s Services, a private, non-profit Child Care Resource & Referral Agency, (707) 863-3950, Ext. 709.  – R.S.]
