On the basis of drawing lessons from the form of "kindergarten environmental quality assessment scale" in the United States, through dialogue, consultation and investigation with professionals at different levels, the "kindergarten care quality assessment index" was compiled as a tool to practice the problems related to kindergarten care quality assessment. The evaluation content includes not only the hardware evaluation of the park environment, facilities and equipment, but also the professional quality of nursing staff, the quality of interaction with children, and the improvement of children's original development level.
