Choosing a child care setting for your infant, toddler or preschooler is a big decision. Quality is one of the most important factors to consider, as research shows that quality early learning settings help children develop skills that are crucial to their success now and once they enter school.

Quality First — a program of First Things First — partners with child care and preschool providers across Arizona to improve the quality of early learning for kids birth to 5 and helps parents and families make more informed decisions when choosing a provider to meet their needs.
