Why this rating

This daycare earned 1 out of 5 star overall. Structural quality reflects a 67% violation rate. The structural rating also includes Iowa's licensing baseline — what every licensed daycare in the state must meet. Iowa caps infant ratios at 1:4, toddler ratios at 1:4, and preschool ratios at 1:12. Lead-teacher education isn't regulated. Teachers must complete 6 hours of annual training. No objective process measures (e.g., state quality rating or national accreditation) are available for this daycare. The overall rating reflects structural features only.
