Child care providers may or may not provide your child with educational resources. Some provide simple work with your child to keep them busy. Others provide learning games, toys and other aspects that can help to prepare your child for the years ahead.

Find out how child care providers celebrate the holidays with your child. From Valentines Day to Christmas, you want to know what types of crafts they will provide as well as what type of background on the holiday. If you have religious beliefs, this could be important to you.

Some child care centers work out of various churches and religious locations. That doesn't mean that they are teaching those values, though. If you do or don't want this, you'll need to ask the teachers and providers what types of lessons surround educational resources like this.
