How we list providers

Every provider on this directory goes through a real accreditation review before their listing goes live — business license, liability insurance, a background check, and a safety attestation, each reviewed and confirmed by our team, not just collected and taken at their word.

Each confirmed check gets a real date, shown on the provider's own page under "Accreditation status." Badges you see on a listing, like "Locally Owned" or a multi-year anniversary, are a separate layer — awarded directly by us, not self-reported by the provider.

This directory isn't a marketplace. Providers don't pay for placement, and listing order isn't influenced by anything but a neutral sort. It's a directory of providers who've earned real accreditation through our review process.
