I think that if I were a parent my process for deciding if I were going to send my child to daycare or preschool would include some research. I would attempt to find out what aspects make for the best daycare and preschool expire nice for infants and toddlers. I would then visit the day care at different times of the day to make sure that the preschool or daycare was actually following through with these ideas. I think that there needs to be more regulations on day ares in the USA. Daycare providers here tend to be paid very poorly and have little to no required training with children beyond CPR and at time food handlers cards.
I totally agree that the U.S. obviously needs more regulations for daycare. What sort of additional regulations would you recommend? Also, I'd have to agree that higher pay rates for daycare providers is much needed. And I think pay raises/more guidelines could encourage quality daycare in the U.S., which would benefit everyone.
