Q: We're starting a day care and are required to do background checks on all employees and volunteers. What's the best way to do background checks?
A: My first suggestion is to use one of your NASE benefits: e-Check Online.
E-Check provides background screening services, including criminal history, Social Security verification and more. Go to
www.NASE.org, log in and enter "e-Check" in the Quick Link box.
You can also check with your state day care licensing agency. It may provide a list of background screening companies in your state.
