This video demonstrates positive interactions between a monitor and provider and serves as a model for conducting a Child Care Center monitoring visit – how to begin the visit, put the provider at ease, observe how the provider works with the children, observe compliance with health and safety standards, and complete the visit.  A voice-over explains what is happening at each step of the visit, why that step is important to the monitoring process, and other best practice information.
