What Our Members Say About Vroom®
“We have also been able to incorporate [Vroom] with the child care providers sharing how they can inform families on the Vroom App. This is very helpful in the family engagement piece of QRIS (Quality Rating Information System).”
“[We] support our region’s child care providers to achieve, maintain, and increase their quality ratings. We recognize that Vroom is an excellent tool for child care providers to utilize when developing their parent engagement strategies.”
