Mom Trusted Reports put all of the information in your hands

The devastating fire at a Texas daycare that resulted in the death of children happened two years ago. Jessica Tata, who left the children unattended when she made a trip to Target, was found guilty of murder just last year. A thorough inspection of Tata’s safety standards and background may have prevented this tragedy.

 

At Mom Trusted, we recently launched our newest feature in an effort to place more information in parents’ hands. A Mom Trusted Report informs parents of potential compliance issues at childcare centers and daycares that they may be considering.

 

A detailed Mom Trusted Report includes:

  • – An overall Mom Trusted score that allows parents to quickly compare child care centers
  • – The total number of violations, inspections and their compliance results
  • – A detailed summary of violations including the violated code and why the care center did not meet standards
  • – Health and safety checks involving criminal records, employee records, CPR, first aid and transportation records
  • – Accreditation and credentials like those from the Better Business Bureau and state child care agencies
  • – Mom Trusted Reports even scans the internet to pull in any good or bad reviews, articles and filings around the selected child care center

 

Mom Trusted Reports places more information in the hand of parents searching for a safe daycare center for their children.

It’s easy!

1. Just login to your MomTrusted.com account and click on the “home” tab at the top of the page.

2. Use your mouse to select the Widget Code from the Your Widget Code box.

3. Copy the code from the box by holding down the Ctrl button on your keyboard and clicking on C (button on your keyboard) at the same time. (OR you can normally right click the mouse and choose “copy” from the menu that pops up).

4. Now go to your website, facebook profile, or wherever you are going to put your widget. Paste it there by clicking in the text area (somewhere you would be able to type text normally). You can paste by holding the Ctrl key and the V key at the same time OR right clicking in the text area and selecting “paste” from the menu that popped up.

Use your MomTrusted Personal Provider Widget to professionally link to your profile. Here’s an example:

Your widget shows your profile picture, provider name, provider type (facility, preschool, nanny, babysitter, inhome), the number of positive parent reviews you have, the first few lines of your descriptions, and links to your child care or preschool profile. This way new parents can easily find more information about your services and your current parents can quickly leave reviews. It’s like an online business card for your child care business or preschool!

Here’s a few other ideas for how to use your child care or preschool profile widget, use it in
– your email campaigns to your current parents
– your email signature
– classified ad postings across the web (craigslist, facebook, etc)
– your classroom blogs
– your website
– your signature on forum and chat sites (cafemom, momslikeme, babycenter, etc)
– all your social networking profiles (facebook, myspace, bebo, friendster, hi5, orkut)
– all your social media sites (youtube, yahoo profiles, bookmarking sites, etc)
ANYWHERE you promote yourself on the web! (if you have other ideas we would love to hear them!!)

If there are any places that do not allow you to use your provider widget code but will allow you to put a link to your website or profile…simply click on “View My Profile” from your “Home” tab (after you login on MomTrusted.com you will automatically be directed to this page). Once you are on your public profile, copy your unique url from the address bar of your internet browser. It should look something like this:

http://momtrusted.com/in_homes/3243-NannyMable

Use this url as your own personal website to allow new parents to get important information about your services quickly.
