What do You Wear to "Work"?

[Unregistered]

do you wear "street clothes", a uniform, a mix of the two? what generally do you wear? (pants, shorts, dress, etc)

since we never really meet other daycare providers, this one is a big IDK.

I look like a color coordinated gym teacher. Today's color is blue.

I wear dress pants and a nice shirt/sweater. In the summer capris or a skirt with a nice top.

Polo shirt & jeans or jean/ khaki shorts in the summer

[MrsSteinel'sHouse]

I wear either jeans/ khakis or capris. On top- polos, solid t's, blouses, sweaters.
I try to be "dressed" but able to play and I wear nothing that I would be mortified if I ruin it.

I have t-shirts with my logo on them to wear each day.....i have worn scrubs tops many times.....I just try to be comfortable and wear things that are OK to get dirty but still look professional for the day!

I wear scrub tops and shorts or capris in the summer and scrub pants in the winter with a long sleeve t-shirt under my scrub top.

I love how tough and easy to clean they are and the pockets are great! Plus now they make so many cute fabrics.

No more snotty, painted, bleach splattered regular clothes for me.

I wear street clothes. Tops with black pants or maxi skirts. Comfortable and easy to move in. When I was in a center we wore uniforms that consisted of khakis and polos.

Jeans or black pants(yoga not dressy) Hoodie with pockets in the front.Every day but different colors.Ahhh!!! Comfort! I do shower,put make up on and wear jewelry every day but as far as clothes go I'm all about comfort.Now if we go on a field trip I will wear something a little nicer,we go on three outings a week so the other two days I'm so cozy Best part of the job!
That and the commute.

"Street clothes" here too. Jeans, nice yoga pants, shorts, capris, sweatshirts, long & short sleeve tees, tank tops (not spaghetti strap), etc. Nothing ripped, stained or bleached, but stuff I can get dirty, sit on the floor in, etc.

I wear street clothes and keep it modest to mostly cover my tattoos.
BUT, every two or three weeks, we'll have a pajama day. Those are my FAVORITE! And I get to see my kiddos in their cute jammies.

I dress business casual for interviews and tell parents that I dress down for daycare. I let them know that it is not because I don't take the job seriously. I dress down because I spend most of the day either on the floor or holding babies that drewl (sp) all over me. Lol. I wear jeans or sweats most days with a tank top or sweater.
