It's just me probably...............but I will not wake anyone................change after nap. We do not 'fart' when asleep(Dr. Oz confims this) so the kid is NOT asleep when they poop.

It's just me probably.......but I would not enroll in your care if that was your normal business practice.
If I notice someone has pooped while they are awake or asleep, they are changed immediately.
NO ONE deserves to sit in poo. Especially when they are too young to know its not okay. Because its not.
Many states dictate IMMEDIATE changing when a child is poopy.
IMHO, it's the right thing to do as it qualifies as respectful, responsive care to the little ones under my watch. -
Are you asking if I would change a poopy diaper if they are asleep? Yes I would. Most of the times, they will be waking up soon since they will get uncomfortable.
Don't you worry about them getting a diaper rash?
For the record - Infants & young children do not have sphincter control until their body matures. There are medical conditions that will cause children to not have control.Comment

If I notice it, I will change. Many times they will go right back to sleep. It causes to many rash problems to leave them in it.Comment

ITA that a poopy diaper needs to be changed.
Is this weird or normal? I have not noticed it until the last few years:
If one of my infants or toddlers poops during nap, every last one of them does

Immediate change, regardless.Comment

I haven't started my daycare business yet, but when taking care of children for family/friends, dirty diapers are changed whether awake or asleep.Children are little angels, even when they are little devils.
They are also our future.Comment

and its always an unregistered poster.
Babies here sleep in separate rooms so there have probably been times they slept with a poopy diaper but I find 99% of the time they do it in those few minutes that they are awake but still just laying there babbling. Bigger kids in the playroom will get changed whether they are asleep or awake if I smell something foul.Comment

When I check and they are wet, I change.
When I smell and they have poop, I change.
It doesn’t matter if they are awake or asleep. I will state for the record: I do not check diaper during sleep time. However, my nose does.Comment

...hahahahah
I just posted about this the other day, but I was not asking if they should be changed or not, because to me that is just the obvious...
I have seen the same topics get debated over and over on here, just the way it seems to go.Comment
