It's 4:1 infant:DC provider ratio correct?

At least that's what I'm finding on line.

DH and I went into the place that we *were* going to be taking C to. For the second time now that I've gone in the numbers have been off.

The first time it was in the older kids room. About 12-15 kids to the one teacher. 

Yesterday it was 6:1 with no floater. Only two teachers in the school. One of them wasn't even in the room with the older kids. She was down the hall as I watched some kiddo crawl on a table.

Needless to say we went to look at a new place.

I think we found one. I feel better already about leaving C there. She and I walked back in today and they remembered her by name. This was also the only place that interacted with C at all during my visits. The director even asked to hold her.

It depends on the age but yes, for under 1 year, 4:1 is the ratio.  

I found this chart online:

I found one daycare that was 3:1 but it was too far away from us

That's the one I pulled up yesterday as well.  I'll give ya a freebie but when it happens twice on the two times I go back in there something is wrong.

Yes that is correct. Olivia's dc is 3:1 but that is not state requirement.
