Child-care agency targets National Harbor, hotel

Providing child care for working parents has long been a goal of the Prince George's Child Resource Center, and a new grant may help the organization spread its mission to National Harbor in Oxon Hill.

About 60 percent of the 2,200 employees at the $4 billion project's Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center have young children who need care, said the hotel's Sheila Liverpool. Although Liverpool said she couldn't comment on how many workers have child care, she said it is likely many may lack resources.

"We want to help them do their job, as well as maintain commitments to their families," she said.
