Provider Comparison ToolKit
Getting Organized:
Once you have submitted your care request, the next step will be to gather, organize and compare information from the providers who have responded to your request.
To assist in this effort, The Child Care Square will provide you with a Provider Comparison Toolkit. Our system will automatically forward your ToolKit immediately after you have submitted your care request.
Your Provider Comparison Toolkit includes:
- Telephone Interview Questionnaire Worksheet
- Provider Comparison Excel Spreadsheet
- Facility Tour and On-Site Interview Questionnaire Worksheet
- Your Child's First Week - What to Expect
Telephone Interview Questionnaire Worksheet
Provider Comparison Excel Spreadsheet
Facility Tour and On-Site Interview Questionnaire Worksheet
Your Child's First Week - What to Expect
In preparation for filling out the spreadsheet and questionnaires, as soon as you receive your ToolKit, open and print the attachments.
Our system encourages providers to contact you at their very earliest convenience to begin the enrollment process. However, please allow a full 72 business hours to be contacted. By the 4th or 5th day after submitting your care request, you should have been contacted by all the providers in your neighborhood who have a vacancy available for your child.
At this time you can begin scheduling your facility tours. To learn more about the best time of day to schedule your tour(s), what to pay attention to as you observe and whether to bring your child on your first visit please visit our Facility Tour and On-Site Interview page.
