I'm not in the business of raising children for the parents. I WANT them to WANT to go home. It doesn't make me feel good at all when I see kids crying because they don't want to leave my house. I do my job well and I'm glad that my daycare kids and their parents value me but I don't want to do my job so well that the parents feel like their child likes me better or so well that the parent outsources more of the parenting to me.
I take a step back at pick up time and let the parent handle it. I will give goodbye hugs but I want the child to interact with the parents more than me at pick up.
Bentley, has anyone ever brought to your attention that you border on being a mean spirited person?
I have to agree with you I have seen Bentley be mean spirited a few times and diffently towards Nannyde. This board is not about hate or means words to one another we are here for advice and to bounce ideas off of each other.
