<human>: Can you provide a brief overview of the text?

**Background:** My wife and I had a child near the end of 2014. He was in three different daycares from February 2015 onward. Daycare 1 one closed down in May, Daycare 2 was just part-time for the summer while my wife was off work, and he's been at Daycare 3 full-time since September.

I can accurately estimate how much we spent on child care overall in 2015, but this is the first year I'm claiming the Child Care Credit on our taxes. **Do I need some sort of documentation to prove this?** I saw on irs.gov that I need the name, address, and taxpayer ID of each location, which I should use form W-10 to request. If so, Daycare 3 will be no problem. Daycare 2 might be slightly challenging because it was an in-home situation rather than a center. But I don't even know who to reach out to for Daycare 1. My wife is Facebook friends with some of the employees who quit or were let go from Daycare 1, so I guess I'll ask her to ask them what they used to do?

Any experience with this, personalfinance?
<bot>: If I am planning to claim the Child Care Credit, do I need to reach out to my child's daycare provider for proof of payment?
