The Quality Standards for NAFCC Accreditation
The NAFCC Quality Standards are built around the concept that relationships are a critical component in providing high quality care. The relationships that a provider develops with individual children, those that are formed among the children themselves, and the relationships with each family are all important factors in how well the program meets the needs of both the provider and the families served.
There are 289 standards organized into 5 content areas:
Relationships
The Environment
Developmental Learning Activities
Safety and Health
Professional and Business Practices
