I eat lunch and do snack about 1:30 or so because they get it at 2. Some of the teachers got ill because I didn't get it over there quick enough and the administrator (whose been there forever and thinks she runs the place and can be a real witch and a nosy Nellie if I decide to take off because she has to do t the things I do).

YOU let that go?? Pllleeeeeease tell me you at least got a zinger in.DCM just returned from a LOOOOOONG weekend out of state with her 1 yr old. Monday is not a normal day of attendance.
DCM drops off this morning and says "DCK is super cranky due to getting very little sleep last night. I was going to let DCK sleep in since my parents are here but I couldn't do that to them." *hands DCK over*" Leaves..... :confused:
... thanks for doing that to me.

In context she really didn’t mean it as an insult.... first time mom and all. Excellent family in all other ways...
I knew she meant I represent stability and comfort for her child in comparison to grandparents that live out of state (child doesn’t know as well) so although it’s kind of offensive to hear, I do know she didn’t mean it that way.
I guess my vent was more about how much parents don’t realize how what they say comes across to us sometimes.

I'm right there today too! A mom of a child today says in a snarky tone "oh, by the way, what type of detergent do you use on the nap mat sheets?" I said "Tide." Then she said "oh he's allergic to that, you don't use the Free and Clear???" Uuuummm, NO! I don't and I'm so sick of these types of things afte they are already enrolled. TELL ME THIS STUFF DURING THE INTERVIEWS!!!Comment

Not daycare related at all but I am absolutely heartbroken that Eddie Van Halen is dead.
So much of my pre teen and teen years were spent absolutely loving Van Halen...Comment

I cant today. I just cant. My coworker who was not due to give birth until 2 weeks from now, gave birth while I was sleeping on the one night I happened to go to sleep early for once.... so I didn't know until I woke up.
And then the lady that we were training in to cover her maternity leave decided to no-call no-show today of ALL DAYS. So while I was waiting for her to show up, I did checkins as usual... ended up having to call all of our toddler parents for pickup because we don't have anyone to cover the room. I'm furious. I'm tired. Im extremely exhausted. Im about ready to be done with this job all together.

Leggings why do people wear them on their little girls, I just do not get it. (dont say there is no other pants, because my dd never wore leggings until she started school and wore them with dresses) They are thin and make their legs so cold. When we go out side to play they are always first to want to come in because they are so cold. They go down the slide once and they are wet. When we come inside, I have to peel their leggings off to change there diaper. I feel so bad for them, that I always put a dry pair of pants on them for nap time.
Boys come in jeans, sweats and track pants, they love being outside and playing. Their legs get cold but not like the girls. No trouble getting their pants on and off.
Am I the only one that hates leggings?Comment

Leggings are not very warm but I do prefer them for the girls for potty training.
I’ll never understand why parents put their kids in pants with buttons, snaps and zippers that their kids don’t know how to manage and expect them to succeed in potty training. I can help sometimes but I’m not always in a position to undo a kids pants when they’re in a hurry to make they potty, especially when I have infants on the changing pad.
Having the caregiver always having to help with pants only delays potty training success IMHO as the kids get used to the dependence.Comment

Nope.
I tell parents that leggings are not pants and hoodies are not coats and neither will meet daycare requirements for appropriate dress. Leggings can be worn under dresses and in warm weather. Hoodies can be worn over a t-shirt in fall/winter, but a jacket (fall) or coat (winter) must be brought as well.
I also require socks and shoes (only exception is washable closed toe sandals), closed toe shoes and shorts/leggings under dresses.
It makes it easier for their kindergarten teacher if parents have already become well practiced at appropriate clothing for school/weather. I am still floored that some of this needs to be taught to adults.- Unless otherwise stated, all my posts are personal opinion and worth what you paid for them.Comment

I prefer leggings over jeans any day.
I have had several families dress their still-diapered kids in skinny jeans and I will 100% change them as soon as they walk in the door. I hate those things!!
I wear leggings too and live in frigid MN. I find them warm enough. Too each their own!Comment
