Questions to ask on a tour

Chosen for this facility's inspection history and profile — bring them along on your visit.

  1. Ask how they keep enrollment, immunization, and emergency-contact records current - their state findings include documentation lapses
  2. This is a small program - ask about backup care arrangements when the provider is ill or away
  3. For a home-based program, ask which areas of the home children use and who else is present during care hours
  4. They accept child care subsidies - ask what the enrollment process looks like and whether there is a waitlist for subsidized spots
