Child care
Purdue Cares for Your Child
Purdue University knows that providing quality child care is vital to the quality of life for our faculty, staff, and students. To help you get started, HR WorkLife Programs offers this website to describe what each of the on-campus centers has to offer. Worklife Programs also offers a resource and referral program to assist parents in finding information about on- and off-campus child care and summer camp offerings. Specific information on Purdue University medical coverage, family-friendly practices, family resources, parental support, and educational opportunities can also be found on this site.
Please contact WorkLife Programs or at 494-5461 if you cannot locate a resource that you are searching for.
