Before you enroll
Choosing an in-home daycare in North Dakota
- 1
Ask who else is in the home
Ask who lives in the home and who helps with the children. Many states require background checks for adults living in a licensed home.
- 2
Ask about backup care
With one provider, a sick day or vacation closes the daycare. Ask how many days a year they close and what families do then.
- 3
Ask about the group
Ask how many children come each day and their ages. A home daycare often mixes babies and school-age children in one group.
