You can also find information on their website about financial assistance for child care. Whether regulated or not, home daycares sometimes advertise in newspapers or on community websites providing information on available space.
Step three: Visit See if it’s possible to visit the daycares or home child care facilities you’re considering. Ask lots of questions and gather information about their policies on the following things:
Staff training
Emergency care plans

Depending on the situation in your area, it may be a good idea to put your name on several lists.
