Ok! So your seeking quality childcare that's close to home, affordable, and promises to teach, love, and care for your child....And you come across "Sally Sues Daycare" ( Totally made up!). Here are some things you want make sure of:
Is the daycare licensed?
The state has a system set up in order to get licensed that includes multiple background checks and training.
How many years of experience with children do you have?
Being a mother does not count!! Yes, this is a plus when it comes to knowing what a mother expects when it comes to caring for a child but how many years and what qualifications do you have as far as teaching, dealing with outburst, and creating daily age-appropriate activities?
Has the setting of care been inspected and evaluated?
You want your child to be in a safe environment!! Toys cleaned on the daily basis, furniture safe and age-appropriate, baby gates in place and outlets covers in use, etc.
OH! But "Sally Sues Daycare" only charges 1/2 of what other providers charge......
You get what you pay for!
Be patient and don' settle. Choosing the right childcare is very important.
