Thumbs Up to Change!
 
I believe that the proposed changes are a step in the right direction.  There is no doubt that decreased class size and improving quality training will  improve the day care industry.  Improvements will cost, however, and I would not like the thought that these improvements would increase cost to a level that working families could not afford.The idea is to improve the situation for children and not take quality care out of reach of families that need it most. These changes need to be made, but administrators should work together to explore methods of cost subsidy.
