Arizona DES Certified
What This Means for Your Family

The Son’s Children is proudly certified by the Arizona Department of Economic Security (DES). This certification confirms that our center meets state-recognized standards for licensed child care, including safety, staffing, and operational accountability.

For families exploring child care options, DES certification serves as an added layer of assurance. It reflects our commitment to providing a safe, well-regulated, and dependable environment where children are cared for with intention and integrity.

While DES certification allows us to serve families who qualify for child care assistance, its value extends to every family we serve. It represents one of several ways we demonstrate our commitment to quality and trust.
