Fingerprinting

All early care and education professionals must have fingerprints taken and cleared by the Office of Children and Family Services prior to being allowed to supervise the care of young children in out of home care. The Child Care Resource Network is authorized to provide fingerprinting services for all child care providers in Erie County.

Fingerprinting services are offered on a regular basis at the Resource Network. For more information or to schedule a fingerprinting appointment, call the Resource Network at 877-6666, extension 3067.

If you have been fingerprinted within the past 4 years for child care and are changing employment locations you need a waiver. You can download the waiver form here and fill it out prior to coming in for your fingerprinting appointment.
