Waiting List
Terms
UNMET
Demand
UNMET childcare is for families who desire care on Andrews AFB and do not have any form of care on the base. Within this level families are prioritized according to the base priority policy. Priority One are those single/dual military and military with a working spouse, DoD employees single or with working spouse who are directly living on AAFB or in the Summerfield Housing Area and/or working on AAFB. Other priorities are placed on the list, and may be offered care in the FCC homes or in one of the center base programs, however, if a waiting list develops then they will be give written notice of termination to accommodate the priority one need.
Preferred Waiting List
Since our waiting list feeds into both the Family Child Care homes and center based programs,
family may accept a program as an alternative to their first desire.
For example placed in a home and prefer a center based program, or placed in a particular center but prefers a
particular center. When this happens the sponsor may request a transfer to a specific program or specific location for care. Before this transfer will be approved there must be an opening and the unmet requests for care have to be accomplished. If there is an emergency request which is fully justified it will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Projected Demand
Projected Demand is the third type of waiting list category.
There are three levels to this program, the unborn child, the families coming to AAFB under PCS orders and any family who is in the process of adoption. In order to be placed on the UNBORN list a medical verification of pregnancy must be presented then the DD Form 2606 may be filled out and filed with
SPS. The application is date stamped and filed alphabetically until notification of the baby’s arrival. When sponsor receives orders to PCS to Andrews they may file the DD Form 2606 with
SPS. A copy of the inbound orders must accompany the request with an anticipated date of arrival. Once the baby is born or the family arrives on AAFB they are to notify SPS and update any information which has changed then the application will be properly filed in the Unmet Listing according to the original date on the application.
Registration
When called for child care and the offer is accepted all registration paperwork is accomplished by appointment at the
Central Registration office.
In order to complete registration paperwork, parents will need child's
shot record, current LES/earnings statement plus names and phone numbers
for local emergency contacts. Once this is accomplished a mandatory orientation is scheduled for the receiving program.
The following MUST be presented at the Enrollment Appointment:

Equivalent form from your branch of the military
or a Notarized statement of your Dependant Care Plan from Judge Advocate’s Office.
Failure to bring this document to the Central Registration Office prior
within 48 hours of enrollment appointment will result in your records not being forwarded to the center. Care will be denied resulting in the offer being withdrawn and your application will returned to the bottom of the waiting list.
All Applicants:
Children’s Shot Records:
If records indicate that shots are missing the Immunization Clinic will be contacted to confirm the necessity of the shot. If it is determined that the child is delinquent in having the proper inoculations, you will be directed to contact the Immunization Clinic and develop a plan for the shots to be caught up to date. This plan must be turned into the
Central Registration Office 1 (One) week prior to the start date of enrollment. If not presented, enrollment will be suspended until this plan is in-place. Parents will be responsible of all fees charged for care from the start date forward.
