What filing storage does a daycare or childcare center need?

Daycare and childcare centers maintain enrollment files, health and immunization records, allergy and emergency information, authorization forms, financial and tuition records, and staff credentialing files. All child records are highly confidential and must be in locked storage — a locking vertical file cabinet is required. State childcare licensing typically specifies retention requirements for enrollment and health records (often 3–7 years after a child leaves the program). Immunization records and emergency contact information need to be quickly accessible — organize frequently needed records in easily accessed drawers. Staff credentialing files (certifications, background check records) must be in a separate locked section. FindOfficeFurniture.com — call 888-719-4960.
