I also give out a list of references during an interview. I have 2 personal references, 3 current families and 3 past families. I have had a few call my references, one potential dcmom call my references at 11pm at night AND her 3yr old was still up yelling and screaming in the background. One of my current families was called at 11:45pm at night...

Needless to say i did not accept this family into care.
