Ten Steps Toward Child Care Bliss
2. Choose a care provider that you will be able to get to know on a personal level, rather than just through quick drop-offs and pick-ups with minimal interaction.
3. Consider a live-in child care provider. Live-in providers, such as au pairs, offer affordable childcare with flexible hours you can select.
4. Make sure the provider cares about your specific requests and concerns relating to your family’s and child’s needs.
5. If you need child care during non-traditional hours or on weekends, find a provider that charges the same rate regardless of what time the care is provided.
6. Make sure you’re comfortable and feel secure about the environment where your child is cared for - whether this is your own home, the provider’s home, a camp, or a day care center.
7. If you keep a close watch on what your child eats or if your child has food allergies, ask what type of snacks the child care provider supplies or will prepare.
8. Many providers offer discounts and family rates for enrolling or taking care of more than one child. If you have more than one child, look for a provider that offers this.
9. Consider your child’s age-specific needs. Infants require constant care from trained care givers, while toddlers may need frequent stimulation and active discipline. Make sure your child care provider is suited for the type of skills your family requires.
10. Check for proof of First Aid and CPR training before hiring a new care provider. “High quality, flexible and affordable child care is fast becoming a necessity for American families, with many households depending on two incomes and both parents working outside of the home,” stated Sarah McNamara, vice president of AuPairCare, an au pair agency that matches American families with international au pairs. “Parents should research every possible child care option available to them before making a decision, to ensure that they make the right choice for their child and their family’s needs.”
