Daycare Nightmares
by Laura Higgins,
The Riverfront Times,
9-Aug-00 |
Even for facilities that are licensed and
inspected, breaking the rules usually means little more than a slap on the
wrist. Inspectors are likely to give violators a second chance, and,
in some cases, a third, fourth, fifth, or sixth chance.

Daycare Nightmares

Margaret Franklin, who heads the Missouri Bureau
of Child Care Safety and Licensure says inspectors repeatedly try to work
with a facility to correct its problems. "We try to be very fair and
very consistent...(If there's a problem), do we close that center and put 60
families out without care?".

Daycare Nightmares

William Gromley, a professor of public policy at
Georgetown University says, "The unfortunate truth is that even
demonstratably bad daycare centers are unlikely to be shut down. A
child-care licensor has to convince her supervisor this is a very serious
matter, has to convince an assistance attorney general this is a very
serious matter, has to convince an administrative law judge or an actual
judge that the center should have its license revoked. It's a very
protracted legal process in most states".

In the highly unlikely scenario that a
facility has its license revoked, it can still care for four unrelated
children in a home; nothing in the laws prohibits a previously disciplined
child-care provider from doing so as long as it does not receive state or
federal subsidies.

Though criminal-background checks are required of
workers at licensed or subsidized child-care facilities, even a jury's
conviction doesn't necessarily put someone out of the child-care business
(according to Dewey Riehn, director of the out-of-home investigative unit of
the Missouri Division of Family Services).

Corinne Patton, coordinator of the
public-awareness campaign for the Missouri Child Care Resource and Referral
Network, says "child-care inspectors...bend over backward to
give people (daycare providers) a chance to correct a problem -- sometimes they bend too far
-- but it is very hard to take someone's license away once it is granted".
