California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Thursday the creation of an online portal through which parents can find child care options.

Created with essential workers in mind, the portal will allow guardians to enter information that will match them with a child care program in their area, according to a press release from the governor’s office. Among other criteria, the programs listed on the site will include their capacities, the age ranges of children they offer care for and programming contact information. Additionally, the portal will provide users with information to contact local child care resource and referral agencies.
