Who is Watching The Child Care that is Watching Your Children

In a frightening report, according to a Michigan auditor general’s office audit as reported by the Detroit News, state oversight of child care providers was so poor that 1,900 people who were not qualified to provide the care, including sex offenders and child abusers, were not identified, nor prevented from doing so.

This is a frighting for any young families looking for child care. DHS has provided a good guide for what to look for in your child care provider. Their guide can be read here. Included in the guide are questions to ask, what to look for, how to check references, and how to stay involved.
