Special Needs Daycare Enrollment

Our team is here to help enroll your child. A physician’s order is required for our services. We will coordinate with your child’s physician and insurance company to complete the approval process. As soon as we receive a signed authorization, we go to work on your child’s approval. Our services are covered by Medicaid and its affiliated insurance companies if their medical condition requires skilled nursing care.

Eligibility and Qualifications

A child must require nursing supervision and/or care throughout the day to qualify for services. Below are some eligible medical conditions. Please contact us if your child’s condition is not listed to see if your child qualifies for our services.
