How can I assess the quality of a daycare for my child?

Spend the Day

Choosing a day care can be a big problem. You want to make sure that your child is cared for properly, that the environment is clean and the staff is caring. When checking out a center, talk to the director and ask to spend a day or a few hours with your child there and just observe. You will need to leave the room from time to time and peek in to make sure things are going smoothly, but you will get a good idea of how things work. Your choice should be a lot easier to make after your trial day.
