Sunshine's careful staff hiring and screening process

Safety is Sunshine’s #1 Priority

Since 1992, Sunshine Child Programs has passed all licensing inspections, and makes sure to always follow all guidelines with staff screenings, and does not start any employee until they are cleared by all background screenings through the State of Florida & Broward County.

Development

All full time staff is required to take 45 hours of Child Development coursework and receive their certification for a CDA. We provide company scholarships for our staff to continue their professional education and receive their Child Care Director credentials.

Screening

Sunshine strives to maintain a low student-to-staff ratio by hiring staff that meets and/or exceeds the qualifications set forth by the Children and Family Services Licensing Division.
All of our staff must be at least 18 years of age or older, take & pass drug testing and be fingerprinted along with extensive local and national screening performed by the FBI.

In addition to this, Sunshine makes sure that all employees go through a yearly screening, in an effort to continue our concentration on safety.

Sunshine values the safety process and recognizes the importance of this as part of the safety for all of our children. We value highly all licensing inspections, and are proud to say that we have passed with 100% safety rating with all of our school and city locations, year after year.

Our Human Resources Department is skilled and trained in the hiring process and we offer yearly ongoing professional training on Safety, Security, First Aid, Behavior Management, Pediatric CPR, Child Abuse & more.

Sunshine Child Programs does not discriminate based on race, religion, gender, national origin, marital status, sexual orientation, physical or mental disability or political orientation.
