The board, staff, children and families would like to welcome you to Palcare! Palcare is unique and innovative in its combination of extended hours, flexible scheduling and providing high quality care and education. Palcare was developed with the support of community partners to meet the critical need for quality care in San Mateo County, especially those families with changing or extended work schedules. You as a parent are the first and most important teacher in your child’s life. We hope to develop a strong partnership with you in meeting the individual and unique needs of your child. Open/on-going communication is crucial in meeting your family’s needs. Please let us know if you have any question or concerns. We look forward to working with you and you child!
