Rehabs that Offer Child Care Available

How can you commit to your own recovery when you’re constantly worried about who will care for your children? For so many parents, the thought of seeking help can bring a flood of fear, wondering if getting better means leaving your family behind. It’s a heavy burden, but you’re not alone in feeling torn. The truth is, recovery and parenthood can walk hand in hand, and there are programs right here in Indiana designed to support both you and your children through the journey.

Why Choose a Rehab That Includes Child Care?

One of the biggest hurdles for parents seeking treatment is finding safe, reliable care for their children. In fact, very few substance use treatment facilities nationwide offer child care on-site^[1]. This challenge can feel even greater in places like Indiana, where the number of child care workers has been on the decline^[2]. Choosing a rehabilitation program with integrated child care removes that stress, allowing you to focus completely on your health and recovery. These programs are designed to heal entire families by keeping you and your children together, strengthening your bond through family therapy and creating a path to a healthier future. You can find specialized mother-child rehab programs that nurture these crucial connections.

Understanding Your Program Options

When you start looking for a child care available rehab, you’ll find several program options designed to fit different needs. Some facilities offer comprehensive services that include housing, therapy, and child care all in one place^[3]. Understanding the differences between these programs can help you decide what's best for you and your family. Whether you need an immersive, live-in environment or a more flexible outpatient schedule, there are rehabs that provide childcare to support your journey.

Inpatient Programs with On-Site Child Care

Inpatient or residential care programs allow you and your children to live at the facility together. This model provides a stable, structured environment where you can receive intensive treatment without being separated from your kids. While you attend therapy sessions and focus on your recovery, your children are looked after by licensed professionals in a dedicated on-site daycare. This approach ensures your children are in a safe, nurturing space, giving you the peace of mind to fully engage in your healing process.

Find Child Care

Finding the right facility that offers child care requires a little research, but it’s worth the effort. Start by using online resources, like the SAMHSA treatment locator for Indiana or our own directory of rehab facilities in Indiana. When you contact a potential facility, be sure to ask specific questions about their services. It's also vital to confirm that both the treatment program and its child care services have the proper state license^[4].

Here are a few questions to ask:

• What are the credentials and qualifications of the child care staff?
• What is the ratio of staff to children?
• What kinds of activities and educational programs are available for the children?
• How will we communicate about my child's well-being while I'm in treatment?

Your Path Forward With Your Family

Choosing to seek help is a courageous step, and you don’t have to sacrifice your role as a parent to prioritize your health. Recovery is not just about stopping substance use; it’s about building a stronger, healthier life for you and the people you love most. The right support system makes all the difference, creating a space where both parents and children can heal and grow together. With family-focused care, you can build a foundation for lasting well-being and find hope for a brighter future. There are many resources available to support your family through the recovery process.
