    Is Anyone Closed On Veteran's Day?

    I am trying to decide on what days to take as holidays. Just wondering how many daycare providers are closed on Veteran's Day. And if you are closed, is it a paid holiday for you or not?

          Closed! I take all federal holidays paid. Am missing a bunch this year, though, as I'm closed on Fridays and many fall on Friday. SO glad for the break tomorrow; much needed.

              I'm closed and paid. But I cater to school employees and am closed and get paid for any day indicated as a holiday on the school calendar.

                    I'm closed on the 6 Major Federal Holidays, open on the minor ones (i.e. tomorrow). I also plan one of my two, one week vacations (10 days inc weekends if planned right) so it hits a Holiday & or two as in the case of Christmas & NewYear this year. When I take my May vacation, I end up with 10 days straight if I start on the Saturday the week before Memorial day (one of my 6 holidays); Never had an issue because parents know up to a year in advance when I close

                        Open here but wish I'd closed. Only 2 out of 6 kids will be here.
                        My rates are for 52 weeks a year. Took me a long time to change that in my policies and nobody batted an eye. This is a huge burn-out profession, we need breaks too!

                              Me too.

                              I only have one non teacher client and both she and her husband have jobs with work from home options.

                              Of course, tomorrow our elementary school is closed for parent conferences so I'll have a full house anyway.
