Choosing a daycare centre for your child can be one of the most difficult decisions if you are planning to get back to part/ full-time work. Although there are many excellent childcare options available like nannies and babysitters, daycare turns out to be a preferred option for most parents. It gives the child an opportunity to develop social skills in a nurturing environment outside their homes. However, a good daycare must meet certain requirements for parents to rest assured that their child is being well taken care of while they are at work. Figuring who will take care of the apple of your eye poses some important challenges, especially for women.
