1. What questions should I ask when deciding on a childcare provider?
Ten Questions You Should Have Answers To In Order To Make Your Choice:
How much experience do the owners and operators have in business?
- What experience do the teachers have?
- What is the daily routine?
- What is the parent involvement?
- Is there time set aside for the parent and teachers to discuss the child?
- How is discipline handled?
- Does the school have an outdoor space and how often is it used?
- Does the school take field trips?
- What is the vacation and holiday schedule
- What is the policy for taking care of sick or injured children?
Then, ask yourself these four questions. Visit the preschool, rely on what you see.
- Are the children safe, busy and happy?
- Does the school have a lively, creative order to it?
- Are the rooms decorated with teacher art or children’s art? (children’s art decorating the room is a sign that the teachers value what the children are creating)
- Do the teachers seem to like what they are doing?
