How Do You Find Quality Care?
First, identify your needs and priorities.
Once you have a list of caregivers and day care centres, it is time to start telephone interviews. Jot down the questions you want to ask.
Visiting potential centres and family day care homes is the next step.
The relationship between you and the caregiver is extremely important.
Check references before you make a final decision. And write a
contract or letter of agreement -- it can save unnecessary misunderstandings in the future.
