What Curriculum Do You Use?

You want to ensure that your child is not only being cared for physically, but also mentally. This involves understanding what curriculum the preschool and daycare center is using. Most preschool and daycare centers have a set curriculum that they follow, so you can know exactly what your child will be learning and when.

How Do You Choose Your Teachers?

Perhaps the most important question you can ask is about the staff. After all, these are the people who will be caring for your child, so you want to ensure that they are qualified and safe to do so. Ask about how the preschool and daycare center vets their teachers and what qualities they look for.

What is the Student-to-Teacher Ratio?

Many daycare and preschool centers have too many kids and not enough teachers to adequately provide for their needs. It’s important that you find out the student-to-teacher ratio so that you know your child will have the attention they need to thrive.

How Do You Discipline?

With so many different ways to discipline children these days, it’s super important that the daycare and preschool you choose aligns with how you discipline your children. Ask about time-outs, punishments, consequences, raising teachers’ voices, and more.
