Top concerns of parents using childcare programs

5/29/2017

0 Comments

 
You have searched far and wide.  You have done all the necessary research in order to ensure that you select the best daycare for your children. You have finally settled on a magnificent after school daycare in Albany with wonderful caregivers.  You find the caregivers knowledgeable and friendly, and they seem to match every description of the ideal people you would like to handle your child. It seems like a perfect deal. However, on the pickup day, you notice something that makes you start thinking twice.

Here are some concerns that you would want to solve before handing over your child.

Food - the good thing about licensed daycare givers is that nutrition is a top priority. The law requires centers to provide healthy, balanced options to the children. However, it is possible that you might still be concerned about the food offered at the daycare. It is important to talk to the staff about the type of food they provide. Some centers allow children to make choices.  But it is also worth noting that being extremely choosy for your child when it comes to food might not help. Remember, that is part of the things that your child will learn at the facility. Unless food being offered is not nutritious, it is best to allow your child to go along with it.

Safety - another top concern for most parents is the safety of their children. Is the daycare in a secure location? Does the institution employ enough safety measures when taking care of children? A secure environment is mandatory. At the very least, only authorized persons can visit the daycare facility and there is a proper monitoring of the exit and entry of every person.

Clean and healthy - every parent wants to ensure that their children are raised in a clean and healthy environment. Children should be taught by their caregivers to always wash their hands before eating and after using the washrooms. If the environment is not clean, there is danger of contacting sickness or disease.

Friendly - ensure that your child is in friendly hands. You are only going to have peace of mind if you know that your child is spending time in a friendly, thriving environment. There should also be a connection between the children and the caregiver. On the same note, children should be taught in a stimulating environment that encourages fun and play.  Unlike adults, children require stimulating things such as puzzles, blocks, throwing balls, etc.

Accredited - most importantly, make sure that the facility is licensed to offer after school childcare. Ask for past customers who can give you important information regarding the place.
