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 value for the money.
    Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: Beige
    Comfortable right out of the box. Great style and well made. The more you wear the softer they get but maintain their overall appearance.

    Comfortable fit for slip-in fabric shoes
    Size: 14, Color: Black/Black
    My first experience with Marc Joseph. I typically purchase dress and casual work shoes from Florsheim and occasionally Rockport. I'm giving these four stars because the initial fit and feel appear solid. Depending on the shoe brand I wear a size 14 or 15. My feet are slightly wide but I don't alway need wide fit. These size 14 fit well with wide enough toe box. I've tried slip in shoes before and they just don't feel right. These somehow work and there is no heel slip. My only reservation is the high lip on the heel for slip-in and hope they dont catch pant hems. I gave 4 stars because I'll have to determine durability. Granted they are a light fabric shoe with a soft rubber tread. I'd like them to last for at least 6 months..and use them for business casual work wear during warm weather.
