Paths to QUALITY Levels of Child Care:

Paths to QUALITY™ is Indiana’s statewide quality rating and improvement system for early care and education. It consists of four levels, and each level builds on the foundation of the previous one. Providers start at Level 1 and work towards national accreditation at the highest level, Level 4. These advancements result in significant quality improvements at every level.

Participation in the program is voluntary, but all Paths to QUALITY programs meet basic health and safety standards. When programs do more to support learning, use a planned curriculum, or reach national accreditation, they achieve a higher-level rating.

Paths to QUALITY is a voluntary system. At each level, programs demonstrate greater quality. Read below to discover Paths to QUALITY levels for your child and family.
