Finish Strong Blog Series:Day 5 Assess Your Child Care Program

Have you assessed the quality of care that is going forth in your Child Care Program this year?

If not, this is a great time to assess the quality of care that you are currently providing and make necessary changes in 2016!

For many years, I have used the ECERS Rating System to evaluate my entire Child Care program.  In fact, the quality care indicators in the ECERS Rating System Guide are Awesome and the recommendations can easily be incorporated into your program.

The Weekly Progress Report

Do you issue weekly or quarterly progress reports to the parents of preschoolers enrolled in your Child Care program?

Parents want to know how their kids are doing in your program and a weekly preschool progress report is a great way to keep parents informed. A preschool progress report should inform parents of the following:

  • Skills that their child worked on for the week
  • Behavior update
  • Skills that the parent can work on at home with their child
  • A place for parents to leave a comment and return the form to you
  • A Personalized note from you

To reduce the amount of paper that you use, consider using a progress report that covers half of a sheet of paper. This will save you dollars on ink and paper. If you are really creative, you may want to create your own progress reports on your home computer.

However, if you are in need in a progress report template or would like to know more about tracking the development of the children in your care, join the Family Home Child Care provider Empowerment Club.

For sample lesson plans, sample progress or toddler reports, join the Curriculum Club.

To Your Success…
