Child Care Prep OCONUS

Before PCSing, get a head start on your family’s Child and Youth Programs (CYP) registration and school registration. This will be a big help to you once you’re overseas – trust us, we know! There’s a lot going on when you first arrive. Military families may request child care by visiting MilitaryChildCare.com.

  • Priority 2: Single and Dual Military or Command Sponsored DoD Civilians with a full-time non-military working spouse (working 20 hours per week or is a full-time student)
  • Priority 3: Families with an unemployed spouse

Dependent children, 6 weeks old to 12 years of age, of active duty personnel, DoD civilian personnel, reservists on active duty or during inactive duty training, DoD contractors and Coast Guard personnel assigned to or living on the installation, are eligible to use the Child and Youth Program services.

Child Care for PCS Program

The Air Force Aid Society program offers Air Force families up to 20 hours of free child care per child on a space available basis within 60 days of arrival or departure to/from the base.
