Child care and preschool professionals evaluate programs
but not for parents
Like every industry (e.g., medicine, car repair, construction), if you don't work inside the industry
it's difficult to evaluate it
Many child care and preschool programs are not licensed

or are exempt from some NC child care standards
Licensing inspections are usually only once ayear
and star ratings are determined only once every 3 years
Only a few programs are nationally accredited
Child care and preschool quality affect your child today and his success all the way through high school So Be Picky!
