Questions for Daycare, Please give advise?

If you want to find a safe, quality daycare for your son you should go to the website of the National Association of Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies at http://www.naccrra.org/

They have a publication that you can read tonight called “Is this the right place for my child” that gives a list of 38 questions to ask a potential provider when you visit the center. The link to the questionnaire is http://www.naccrra.org/publications/naccrra-public...

You will want to download both the booklet and the 38 question checklist (enough to take to each daycare) and you can make your own notes when you visit each center. The questionnaire is extremely thorough. It is endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics, and it encourages you to make the right observations so that you can determine how their answers relate to the quality of care that your son will receive. Every question comes with an explanation so that you can understand why it is important and all of the questions are based on research about what is important to your child’s health, safety, and development.

Good luck tomorrow!

Well your lucky hes 8 months old and had family watch him for so long.

I work at a daycare and it was hard for me bringing him and I work there!

I dont usually work in his room but im around, but i think it makes it tougher because when you hear him cry I want to jump but I cant.

Your son definitely old enough for daycare.

The babies at work are the hardest because they need so much attention. 6 week olds.

At 8 months they have a lot of fun playing with the other kids and learning and getting into stuff.

Trust me... I know.

It will be tough and scary. But he should be fine =]

Daycare providers arent mean but defiantly look into your place.

We allow mommys to come in on there breaks. Call in to check on them

We have a 4 to 1 child ratio, I believe thats the average.

Give it a try, start off slow, 1 day a week see how he does.

I bet he'll love the other kids his age.

They have fun.

Ask:

1. What the child to teacher ratio will be in your son's room

2. If they allow for "pop in" visits(i.e. if you can come and check on him at any time during the day)

3. Do they have any sort of schedule for babies your son's age

4. Are the teachers CPR certified and do they have basic first aid knowledge

5. Do they have cameras set up in each room

Look for:

1. Clean rooms

2. Teachers that interact with the babies

3. Clean facility overall

I'm not going to be a major help as I'm not too fond of daycares but obviously a decent ratio child/carer, activities planned for kids, snacks given, nap time respected, a genuine love for the kids and an open door policy where you could just drop in whenever you want to check up things. Drop by even before you put your child there so you really see what's going on before you sign a contract. I'm home taking care of my 2 kids cause I can't trust daycares, I see them as factories but that's just my point of view. Good luck in your hunting and please ask around cause moms talk.

i feel you responded your possess query.If you itemize your returns the extra you'll be able to deduct the larger off you're.I feel utilising the FLEX account will slash your sales via that equal 5k,to 33k as a result of the pre-tax repute of it.The first-class approach is to have your taxes performed each approaches then see that's larger for you..you'll be able to use the rapid tax software and it'll ask all the ones questions you then enter what you spent.

well never listen to other people

if you are so worried think about giving ur son to your mom, grandma , sister, brother

if not then at least try out the day care and tell the babysitter to give him special attention

I would look into family daycare...
