The Care4Kids Parent-Provider Agreement (PPA) is a required form for Connecticut's Care 4 Kids program. Both the parent and the child care provider must complete it together. The form establishes a formal child care arrangement for families receiving state assistance.
The PPA form covers four main areas. It records identifying information for the parent and the provider. It documents the agreed care schedule, including specific days and hours of care. It confirms the provider's license, accreditation status, and background check compliance. It also sets out the payment terms and the family co-payment amount.
Families must meet income and work requirements to qualify for Care4Kids. Parents need to be employed, in school, or enrolled in an approved training program. Children must be under 13 years of age. Income limits are reviewed and updated annually by the Connecticut Office of Early Childhood (OEC).
Providers who receive Care4Kids payments are required to report this income to the Internal Revenue Service. The completed PPA form documents the care arrangement for tax purposes. Both the parent and the provider should keep a signed copy for their own records.
After the form is submitted, the Care4Kids office reviews it and verifies the provider's credentials. Approved families then receive child care subsidies on a set payment schedule. Families must resubmit the PPA form whenever care schedules or providers change.
