The Business Administration Scale for Family Child Care (BAS) is the first valid and reliable tool for measuring and improving the overall quality of business and professional practices in family child care settings. It is applicable for multiple uses, including program self-improvement, technical assistance and monitoring, training, research and evaluation, and public awareness. It is currently embedded in many state quality rating and improvement systems (QRIS) across the nation.

Using a 7-point rating scale (inadequate to excellent), this easy-to-use instrument assesses 10 items:

  • Qualifications and Professional Development

  • Income and Benefits

  • Work Environment

  • Fiscal Management

  • Recordkeeping

  • Provider-Family Communication

  • Family Support and Engagement

  • Marketing and Community Relations

  • Provider as Employer


  • The second edition of the BAS includes refinements to support the reliable use of the instrument and to reflect current best practices in administering a family child care program:
  • The Notes for the BAS items are expanded to increase understanding and facilitate greater consistency in both interpretation and scoring.

  • There is greater emphasis on practices that promote family and community engagement.

  • New national norms for the BAS are reported based on data collected between 2009 and 2017 from 439 home-based programs in 22 states.


  • Use the BAS in conjunction with the Family Child Care Environment Rating Scale–Revised (FCCERS-R) for a comprehensive picture of your family child care learning environment and the business and professional practices that support the program.

    Good Deal
    Price is right, no stuffing to pick up, dogs love them and just throw them out after they’re dirty and your dog got the squeaker out.

    Best Tennis Balls Ever
    Color: Non-Squeaky - Pack of 12, Size: Medium
    Admittedly, I haven't had these for very long, received on Jan 7 and today is Jan 19., 2021, only 12 days. But, we have a terrier mix who hasn't found a tennis ball she couldn't destroy given an hour or two. That is until now. Twelve Days later? She hasn't managed to destroy it at all. We have a puzzle cub that came with a ball inside it. It only took her a couple hours for the ball to rupture at the seam and another 10 minutes to completely destroy it beyond recognition. We put one of these balls in there and here we are over a week later. Not only has she not destroyed the ball but she hasn't been able to get this one out. She looks so silly trying to carry the ball inside the cube. It's hilarious. Anyway, I digress. I would totally recommend this toy for an yone who has a dog that lives to play fetch bit keeps destroying the balls. By the way, Update: Jan 31, 2021 and still going strong. No signs of damage.

    Perfect tennis ball size.
    Color: Non-Squeaky - Pack of 12, Size: Medium
    Like most doggy balls they dont last as long as real tennis ball, but a real tennis ball can wear down her teeth. Great colors, tho in a few days they are yard colored cuz of the slobber and nature on it. Love the handy mesh bag for keeping put away until we need to get out a new one. My dog loves the no squeaky. To her squeaky is inside toy and too distracting for outdoor play. She really enjoys fetching this ball.
