The three things I would want most from my child care provider would be:
1) Give them the care and attention they need when I am not there. 2) Give them a good quality education to help them prepare for the future. 3) Give them safety and security to keep them from harm.
The things I would be the most fearful of is:
1) neglecting my child’s needs. 2) not keeping my child safe. 3) not helping them increase their education.
