How we ranked these

Schools rise on this list when they publish information a parent can check: a verified state child-care license with a clean inspection record, published tuition (1 here do), listed staff-to-child ratios, and detailed policies. We never take payment to rank a school, and we never invent numbers — a blank means the school hasn't published it, not that it scored zero.
