It seems that a popular worry of working mommy's and daddy's is what to do about the precious baby that needs care while they are working. Although not all day cares are bad, it seems to be the last place on any ones mind. One option is to see if there is someone in your neighborhood that is a stay at home mom, maybe they wouldn't mind taking on one more. There is also sittercity (which also works in those small town areas), and a good things about this is that you choose the babysitter and they come to your house. You don't have to take your baby somewhere and worry if people are too busy to be totally focused on your baby. They will be getting one on one attention!!

If you do decide to pick a day care, someone on the baby forum had a really good idea, and that was to keep an eye on the turn over rate. If people don't want to work there then they probably have good reason. Treat it like you would someone that would be coming to your house to babysit. Interview the people, you shouldn't feel embarrassed about this at all! When it comes to your baby you can't be too careful!
