The three things I would want from my child’s provider would be safety, cleanliness, and be attentive towards my child.
The three fears I have are my child being left out of activities, my child not being able to get along with other children, and my child not feeling secure in the environment.

We can also use stickers, stamps, and crayons and talk about why they decided to choose those materials and which they think I should use. I also like picture books and having them explain how things work in the pictures they see.
