This will be my first summer being registered...I am in NY and we are NOT allowed to have daycare use the swimming pool unless we get a written plan that is approved (which my registrar tells me is VERY difficult to do).
I'm fine with that, I would rather not have all the daycare kids in there...1st for the liability and 2nd for all the extra chemicals I would need to buy and added time to keep it clean.
My kids LOVE to swim, hence the reason we bought a big pool. My mother lives right next door to us, so does anyone know if it's a no no to have my own kids use the pool while my mother watches them in the pool while I do the daycare?
I think I remember asking my registrar this at my inspection and slightly remember her saying she advises against it because it's not fair to the other daycare kids...but just because she advises against it, doesn't mean it's against regulation, right? As long as my mother is keeping an eye on my kids in the pool and my sole attention is on the daycare children, I should be ok, right?
I will call eventually to ask for sure, but just wanted to see others intake on it. Ya, it doesn't seem fair to the other daycare kids, but it is our pool...I guess this could be a debate that goes both ways...I'm sure many will have different opinions on this, I'm just wondering if my thought is within regulation.
