Bilingual Child Care 4 U and InfoCheckUSA is offering its paying members special package prices for background checks. To view our special package prices and to order background checks just for our members, click here. (On the "Create Profile" page for the InfoCheckUSA swift order, the name, date of birth, and social security numbers requested will be for the potential child care provider, not you.)
If you are not a Bilingual Child Care 4 U member, you can visit InfoCheckUSA’s website and order from them their background checks offered to the general public.

(Keep in mind that most states require family child care providers to pass criminal finger-print based background checks in order to be licensed. Therefore, you may not feel it is necessary to do a criminal background check on a licensed family child care provider who is already caring for other families’ babies/children and who already passed the state’s criminal background check.)
