can someone recommend me a good daycare/homecare in Wheaton? (Danada area). I have a two year old going currently to one daycare but the teacher ratio is 1:8 and the kids get hardly any attention.
thanks
8 two year olds in a center? That's cake. Try 16 two year olds with one teacher and one assistant (whose minimum requirements is a high school diploma or GED). Most child care homes are run by MOMS!
Try UCCN (United Child Care Network) It is a professional organization for home child care providers. They are in Woodridge and they have members all over DuPage County. Google it.
The State teacher/child ratio for two year olds is 1:8. Most large daycares will operate at this ratio. You may have better luck with a home daycare, where we can decide to keep less children. I know from experience how difficult it is to care for 8 two year olds and give them the attention they need. Good luck.
You can also get recommendations from the childcare referral resource.

We go to First Care of Wheaton...right down the street from danada. Ms. Heidi in the 2 year old room is great!
