XP: Questions for Daycare?

My husband and I are going to visit a daycare center today.  what types of questions should I ask or need to know for anyone who uses a daycare center?

Re: XP: Questions for Daycare?

  • I found that most day cares will tell you what you need to know.  I would specifically ask about staff turnover.  One of the things I really like about our day care is that they have low turnover and we have had consistency in our care givers.  For infants, I would ask about feeding and sleeping schedules - do they follow a specific schedule or do they follow the infant's (most follow the infants but something to ask about).  I was planning on breastfeeding so I asked about sending breast milk - I wish I would have asked more specifically about their experience with breast fed babies.  We had a few issues but were able to work things out.  Good luck!
