A
A
I
start
with
a
little
question
we
say:
do
you
need
help
to
pay
for
the
cost
of
babysitting
your
child?
So,
as
you
know
well
in
the
city
of
Burlington,
and
your
child
can
benefit
from
the
scolarship
butt
program.
What
is
this
program?
We
are
going
to
find
out
later,
because
there
will
be
questions
with
our
guest,
who
is
called
Rebecca
Harris?
Who
is
the
manager
of
this
program?
We
are
going
to
introduce
it
later,
so
the
facet
steps
schooling
program
is
designed
to
help.
A
Burlington
families
have
done
high
quality
child
care,
and
your
child
does
not
have
to
attend
a
program
at
belongton
and
you
can
benefit
from
a
bursary
which
will
go
directly
towards
the
payment
of
your
childcare
costs,
as
well
as
assistance
in
obtaining
additional
state
assistance
which,
in
the
long
run,
we
will
discover
the
reason
for
which,
at
the
very
beginning
of
our
program,
we
are
going
to
do
in
English
in
Lingala
and
then
in
French,
and
why
not
in
Swahili
are
in
place.
Welcome
Rebecca
here
it
is
also.
A
So
I
asked
her
the
question
that
we
are
starting
in
French
and
it.
What
is
this
Do
Scholars
program?
It
is
a
scholarship
program
for
children,
so
this
program
there
and
exists
in
our
city
of
Burlington,
and
it
is
a
plan
that
is
part
of
the
early
learning
initiative
and
the
city
from
Burlington.
So
we
have
children
ranging
in
age
from
0
to
3
years
old,
and
the
program
helps
families
supports
families
who
live
here
in
Burlington
found
to
pay
for
baby
and
toddler
care,
I.e.
A
A
Ok
well,
I
asked
him
the
question
who
is
eligible
for
this
program,
so
she
had
just
said
this.
The
condition
is
that
the
child
would
have
to
be
yes
week
old
at
the
time
of
registration
up
to
3
years
old,
on
September
1st
here
and
is
not
yet
having
the
eligible
age
for
Vermont
Universal,
Pre-Kindergarten
funding,
so
also
what
to
remember,
be
either
currently
enrolled
in
a
partner
program
approved
by
Feststep
and
eligible
for
the
program
and
financial
assistance
for
child
care
of
the
State
either
be
available
apply
to
the
Sicily
Fab.
A
So
she
is
there.
She
will
help
you
with
all
this
information
and
if
you
have
just
entered
the
children's
station,
then
she
showed-
and
this
poster
here,
which
is
in
French
also
we
translated,
then
who
can
also
benefit
from
the
scholarship
during
the
registration
period
and
in
progress
the
child,
your
child,
must
be
a
resident.
You
must
live
in
Burlington
and
also
a
journey
of,
as
we
have
just
said,
at
least
yes
week
to
month,
from
enrollment
and
under
3
to
september
1st
and
is
also
not
eligible
for
vermont
universal,
maternal
funding.
A
State
licensed
child
care
partner
program
where
to
be
ready
and
to
apply
for
CC
FAP
and
if
you
have
just
arrived
at
child
care.
What
is
important
also
to
remember
the
family
income
account
whose
family
income
account
of
the
household
must
be
equal
or
infer
the
80%
of
the
average
income
of
the
region
so
reason
why
it
showed
by
this
example
here.
So
if
you
have
the
size
of
your
family
and
income,
for
example,
if
you
are
two
people
and
your
annual
income
is
600,650.
A
If
you
are
in
this
range
at
least
so,
you
are
eligible.
If
you
have
the
family
of
three
people,
it
says
three,
three
people
in
the
family
in
the
income
must
be
at
least
7077250
dollars:
4
people,
85
1800,
5
people,
not
in
200700
six
people
in
9550.
This
person
feels
and
6400
dollars
and
8
people
113
300000
US
dollars.
A
Ok,
perfect
in
any
case,
I
had
asked
him
how
to
manage
to
apply
well,
and
he
came
to
give
an
answer.
So
you
can
apply
by
filling
out
an
application
for
an
online
form.
There
are
some
or
either
there
are
papers
that
we
can
also
give
you
or
she
may
be
able
to
help
you
in
order
to
fill
in
well
then,
and
online.
We
have
a
site
where
he
had
just
modified
in
any
case,
to
be
able
to
create
a
really
a
real
new
site
there.
A
You
are
going
to
find
even
the
versions,
the
versions
in
any
language
that
we
speak
here
as
immigrants
you
can
find
in
somalia.
You
can
find
kirundi
in
swahili
in
french
and
spanish
and
other
needed
languages
.
So
you
wo
n't,
be
disappointed
then,
and
sites
it's
burlington.gov
is
very
and
it
low
and
earling.
So
you
can
go
there
and
then
you
will
have
all
the
information.
There
are
even
possibilities
that
you
can.
You
need
assistance.
A
B
A
I
raised
asked:
what
are
the
big
steps
to
complete
the
process
of
your
application?
She
just
answered
really
clearly
and
said
if
you
have
to
complete
the
application
like,
as
we
said
and
earlier
SIO
and
this
application
contains
information,
your
contact,
your
address
or
need
to
prove
that
you
live
in
the
city
of
berlington
and
then
why
do
you
need
child
care
service?
A
So
we're
going
to
ask
you
the
question
and
some
other
information
about
your
job
and
but
also
you're,
going
to
provide
certain
documents
proving
your
residency
and
income
in
Burlington
and
just
added
again
there
are
some
parents
may
-be,
they
are
already
in
the
programs,
but
they
do
n't
know
or
else
they
need
extra
help.
They
can
always
come
and
it's
up
to
the
program
now
to
see
where
it
weighs
help
so
band
echo
tosalie
collobabwe
how
to
arrive
so
that
process
is
like
morning
in
Souka.
A
B
A
Perfect
the
service
there
you
can
only
find
and
in
Burlington-
and
she
says
this:
no,
if
you
can
find
the
schools,
even
the
services
in
out
outside
the
city
of
burlington
and
are
always
ready
to
help
it
can
be
bellington
or
winston
and
sex
or
many
other
programs.
You
know,
but
the
commission
you
have
to
live
in
burrington.
We
can
always
assist
you
so
bandico.
A
So
before
we
can
close
our
show,
she
just
added
something
to
encourage
you
to
encourage
you
to
really
be
able
to
hang
out
with
her
and
to
to
be
able
to
meet
her
to
help
you
that
our
children
can
find
a
good
place
to
help
themselves.
She
is
available.
So
if
you
have
any
difficulties,
you
can
still
contact
us
so
that
we
can
put
you
in
touch.
It
is
a
good
program
me-,
even
my
kids
and
I'm,
getting
rid
of
who
were
eligible,
who
are
eligible,
who
were
eligible
in
this
program.
A
A
A
So
I
had
just
asked
her
for
her
impression.
She
is
really
very
impressed
for
our
know-how.
What
we
do
for
the
community,
because
I
am
a
member
of
the
3
comical
Swiss
vo6
of
Burlington
syrup
I,
make
the
bridges
between
the
town
hall
and
then
our
communities.
So
as
a
leader,
then
she
is
really
very
impressed
because
we
have
to
do
a
radio
show
also
somewhere
so
to
this
country
are
really
information.
