For centers nearby and not receiving funding The child care centers listed above are located within a one mile radius of the University. It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to conduct whatever inquiry or investigation is necessary to assess the quality, safety and care offered by the child care provider.
While the Center is required to submit to the State the names of staff for child abuse and criminal record background checks, The University of Iowa has not conducted any background checks, substance abuse testing or other investigation on any of the Centers or their respective employees.
