Yes, that's a good place to start. Also take a "tour" of the facility and see how the kids are interacting with the "teachers". Also ask about what type of food, beverages are served. Do they all take naps, are they closed on regular school holiday/vacation days? What about "potty training", what kind of preschool things are taught? will they learn to print their name etc. Does the school have "family nights", or a PTA?

How many children per teacher? What about Field trips, normally the 2 and 3 year old have there Field trips come to them but you still have to pay more for them to participate in them. How do they discipline? What types of stuff are they tough. What kinds of food do they serve? What about potty training? Basically ask a lot of questions anything that comes to mind, remember this is your child that you are putting in there care, so no question is a bad one and if you feel something isn't right or if you even feel one person there isn't completely trust worthy then move on. Talk to other parents and see if they have had any problems with the school or just what there opinion about the school is.

Absolutely the most important thing you can do is ask for parent references...I have worked at many different daycare centers and now own my own in-home daycare and I promise you I have seen it all. Ask for at least four different parent references, preferably from parents of kids in the room that your child will be in, as one room could have GREAT teachers and the next room over have neglectful ones. What they will do is ask parents in that room to volunteer their work or home phone #'s for you to call them and ask them questions about the care their child receives there and how happy they are with it. If it is a good center this should be no problem at all.
PLEASE be very thorough in your search for the best daycare for your daughter. I worked at a christian daycare in a church and reported a girl working in the toddler room (I was in the adjoining infant room) for verbal and physical abuse and she was eventually investigated and fired. It can happen anywhere at anytime and it's such a scary thing. Good luck and I hope that you find the very best daycare available :)

The most important question to ask is "do you allow drop in parental visits" if they no, or that they insist you call first..RUN AWAY.
