I cannot answer this definitively, but I believe teachers report this sort of thing to the state Social Services department.  There may be a web site or at least phone numbers online you can check into.

I would suggest that you consult with an attorney.\n\nIn almost every state, if there is a CPS proceeding, or child in need of care proceeding, you are eligible for an appointed attorney if you cannot afford one.\n\nI urge you to contact an attorney licensed in your state to assist you.  For a referral if you are not eligible for a free attorney, contact your local or state bar association.  Please... don't try and do it cheaply.  Your kids are worth it aren't they?

Contact the state attorney generals office. I witnessed a CSP of minor and I'm a Federal Agent...if it would not of been for my testimony the offender could of easily walked. You owe it to the children to do everything in your power to lock that SOB up!!

Point out that their obvious lack of civility is undoubtedly the reason why kids are sent to schools instead of staying with their parents for an education.\n\nBarring that, I would say to lodge a complaint to the administration and then grieve to your union rep about the lack of protections from abuse in the workplace. Basically, get the parent wrapped up in a huge legal quagmire. ;)

Try the Department of Protective and Regulatory Services for your state.  They should have a listing and rating for all licensed child care facilities

You mean that the parents are using the child's name to obtain credit cards or other legal documents?  \n\nYou can let the parents know that you are aware of their actions, and want them to stop before you take it to the authorities.  Maybe they will do the right thing.\n\nIf not, you can contact the involved parties to let them know of the situation. and stop any further transactions from being made.\n\nYou could also ontact the police, identify theft is a crime.  I would think that would be a last resort, however, considering the consequences.  Possibly a call to Child Services would get an investigation started into the matter.

It depends on the zoning regulations in your county. Before you will be given your in-home daycare occupation permit, the county will inspect your premises to see if your establishment is in compliance with the rules -- from the signage, available parking spaces for picking in and out of the children, construction of the play yard, etc.\n\nHowever, the test with zoning rules compliance is always your neighbors. Most counties have this clause in their zoning rules -\n\n"If complaints are received reporting that any County Ordinances are being violated by the day care/preschool caregiver the County will review the complaint and may revoke the Home Occupation permit."\n\nIf your neighbors complain because of the loud noise, too much cars parked, customers' cars often speeding, or for some other reason, then you may face a tough time with the zoning authorities

I worked in a daycare center in CO.  For ages 2 1/2 - 5 it was 7 children to one worker.  I worked in the largest class, 2 -3 year olds, and we had 3 teachers, 21 kids.  I don't think there is any state where the ratio is 1 to 15 in child care.  Please don't take your child back there untiil you've checked it out.  They can't possibly be watching your child very well!

First of all, you may not know all the facts.  However, if you are certain, I would contact the state, probably the Department of Social Services.  If not, they will be able to direct you to the proper person.  It's good to see someone stepping up to try and put an end to slakers taking advantage of the system.  Thanks.

call your local dept of human services....they usually keep a list of child care providers that they leave out for clients to browse through.\n\n\nALSO: put a ad in your local newspare...put out some flyers

Definitely report her. Caregivers are in a position of trust in someone's home and to do what she has done is not only unprofessional, but morally wrong. She should be fired to protect other prospective clients. If she is capable of this, what else is she capable of - theft, abuse, extortion? She obviously has no morals.

If you are in a situation where you are dealing with protective services you may need to make changes in your behavior as a parent.  I recommend reading any literature on early childhood development and seek counseling from a professional psychologist.  That being said you need to be careful as they may take your child away.  You should seek legal council if you are facing charges, as soon as possible.

In home day care providers should have insurance to cover these things.  If truly, the swingset is a danger..ie too high for the children to play on, and a safety hazard, call social services to investigate.\nIf no adult was there to supervise, another reason to have social services notified. Accidents do happen, but negligence is inexcusable.
