Explanation of Payment (EOP)

One-Time Per-Child Stabilization Provider Payment & Cost of Care Plus One-Time Payment

Through Senate Bill (SB) 151 and an agreement between the State of California and Child Care Providers United (CCPU), the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) has contracted with CDA to distribute two one-time payments to eligible child care providers.

  1. One-Time Per-Child Stabilization Provider Payment (PSP)
  2. Cost of Care Plus (COC+) One-Time Payment

One-Time Per-Child PSP

CDA calculated your payment based on:

  • Payment report data received from CDSS.
  • The number of children you were reimbursed for April 2025 for subsidized child care services.
  • Your provider type (refer to the rate table below).

Example: If you are a Licensed Family Child Care Home paid for 5 children for the month of April 2025, your payment would be: 5 children × $431 = $2,155.
