Caring Touch Christian Family Center is a CCLD-licensed nonprofit center-based provider at 3035 E Avenue S in east Palmdale, serving infants through school-age children (15 months to 12 years) with before/after school programs. Specifically designed to serve economically disadvantaged families, it offers subsidized child care for income-qualifying families in the 93550 ZIP code and operates extended hours from 7:00 am to 7:30 pm Monday–Friday, among the longest windows available in Palmdale. Capacity is 30 children under CCLD Day Care Center and School Age Day Care Center license #197417439. However, CCLD inspection records from 2023–2024 documented one Type A citation (indicating an immediate health or safety risk) and three Type B citations, warranting review of full reports at ccld.ca.gov before enrollment; families should also seek current-parent references to independently verify the center's current operations.
