Once you have done your research and shortlisted
some facilities, visit them in person and do the
following. When you are visiting, the first
impression is most important. Does it seem to be
a place where your child will have fun? Is the
environment clean, vibrant, and welcoming?
Observe and pay attention to how the caregivers
and staff behave and interact with the children.
In general, the caregiver should be on the floor
while playing with the kids or holding them on
the lap. Do ask for the qualifications and
training of the caregivers.

Are there enough caregivers regularly? How does
the child care center handle when staff is absent
from work? Check for age-appropriate activities
and how are children supervised. Ask for the
number of caregivers and kids in the facility.
the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends a
maximum Child-Staff ratio of 31 with the maximum
group size of 6 for babies up to 12 months of
age.   Do a policy check. The center must have a
written policy for each of the following areas
health, illness, medication, nutrition,
discipline, transportation, media, and outdoor
play. If these are not clearly defined then you
should avoid them.

center. Ask for a visitation policy. Will you be
able to drop in and check your kid anytime? Are
you allowed to see all the areas where your child
may have access? Most importantly are visitors
screened and identity verified before they are
allowed to pick up children. Check if there is a
qualified health professional such as a doctor or
nurse associated with the center.
