Understanding Daycare Inside Out
What To Look For When Choosing A Daycare
A daycare facility is established essentially to provide a caring environment for children while
their parents or guardians are away at work or for some reason cannot take care of them full-
time, but are open to leaving them with qualified staff and helpers for a certain period every day
where they are confident the child will be safe and happy. However, this is only the very basic
outline of what a daycare should provide children: with state licensing now mandatory for
daycares to operate and regular staff training credits being an important part of maintaining the
daycare's credibility on an annual basis, there is a lot more than basis meals, play equipment
and sleeping space that children must be given at a daycare center. We take a look at some of
these essential daycare factors that parents must look out for when choosing a daycare for the
first time:
1. Check for a known and licensed daycare facility that can prove the service quality it will
offer your child to ensure happiness, healthy environment and all-round development of
your precious child. Meet with the director of the daycare center and learn about his or
her credentials; check for background of staff and other volunteer/helper workers who
will be working closely with your child and the number of children they have enrolled in
the group to determine their capability and dedication to proper early childhood
development and education of children.
2. Find out about the kind of play equipment being used, the amount of space available to
the children for games and other activities, the hygiene and sanitation levels of the
daycare as well as the kind of meals being given to the children and whether there is
facility for any dietary supplements/changes for your child. Inform about allergies your
child may have and confirm the ability of the staff to deal with these or other medical
issues; daycare staff needs to be properly trained in administering First-aid and CPR.
3. Learn about the daycare center's emergency plan and fire safety program for children's
safety and health should any such situation arise; this is very important to establish
before admitting your child in a daycare that they have adequate knowledge and training
for dealing with all types of emergencies.
4. Do not hesitate to ask questions about the daycare facility program's child-care
attendants who will be ensuring the child adapts and learns to follow the center's routine
according to a set schedule and what disciplinary action is taken for children that do not
follow this; from learning structured activities to new rules and good habits, these

features must be provided by the service to your satisfaction. Check for potty training
techniques and measures followed by the daycare if your child is out of diapers or ready
for that as some centers do not allow for children before being properly toilet trained or
have extra fees for this or even changing nappies.
5. Check for safety of the daycare rooms – latches, window-bars, covered electrical outlets,
no broken furniture or jagged ends protruding from play equipment should be in sight in
a quality daycare. Proper play, sleep, learning and outdoor activity zone should exist in
the daycare, so don't miss out on these!

What Extra Training Is Necessary To Become A Licensed Day
Care Provider?
Apart from a good basic education and a love for teaching, handling children requires a lot of
endurance and patience on the part of a daycare provider; besides, with new-age theories being
brought in daily about child-rearing and teaching methods, there is bound to be controversy over
what is a good measure of deciding facilities beneficial for childcare. This is why it is important
for any aspiring daycare provider to know about the fundamentals of caring for different age
groups of children and also about special needs any particular child may have, be it a baby or
toddler or a pre-schooler.
Every state has a licensing board that outlines the basic training that a daycare provider
(director and teaching staff) needs to complete in order to get the required license to practice as
a childcare facility support. They also must get and maintain a national certification in First-Aid
and pediatric CPR to ensure safety and emergency medical aid for children in their care at all
times; this cannot be emphasized enough in the case of the daycare provider practicing away
from a healthcare facility where ambulance may take time to reach, therefore swift, capable
action is necessary on their part to keep children safe and healthy.
The Red Cross holds training sessions in emergency medical aid besides local hospitals and
healthcare centers apart from the fire dept. so check with these if you are keen to become a
daycare provider and get the necessary minimum training for better chances at getting
employed as one.
Other qualifications for becoming a daycare provider include secondary education degree in
either child development or psychology (education as a subject will also do in some cases)
besides an ability to handle different types of children, even those with behavioral problems that
require astute knowledge of child psychology and maturity to deal with a variety of situations.
Colleges and universities also offer daycare teacher and support staff programs besides
specialization opportunities in various subjects that come in handy when applying to a daycare
center for a job; however, it is important for any licensed daycare unit to show a certain degree
of continuing education credits every year in order to hold on to their licensure. These are proof
of their interest in keeping abreast with latest developments in childcare and advanced
