Choosing
Quality Child Care:
If
you're considering child care for your family, you have a lot to
decide.
- Do you want a child care center or family child care in a person's
home?
- Do you want your child near your home or where you work?
- Do you want your child cared for in a small or large group?
Most
of all, whichever setting you choose, you'll need to decide whether
or not the provider has the quality environment you are looking
for. Caring, nurturing and educational are some ways you may describe
your ideal child care setting. They are some of the characteristics
of quality child care. Keep these words in mind when you talk to
providers.
It
may seem overwhelming, but this information can help you figure
out what is important for you and your child.
Figuring
out what makes your child most comfortable may also make your choice
easier. You may have additional questions when you speak to prospective
providers.
