Arriving in Pajamas

[Unregistered]

My 3 year old wears pjs all the time. I consider them much more wearable for children than skinny jeans and a collard button down! My older boy used to sleep naked and get dressed in the morning, in pjs. I just want them to be: comfy, able to run jump climb, and able to be pulled off and on easily enough for toileting. Who cares is the manufacturers market it as sleeping clothes? If I repackage it as 'playwear' and dye it in designs that aren't moons and stars, would that help? I have never once brought a child to care in an unchanged over night diaper. If that is your actual concern, you should say so. If it's 'pajamas' that bother you, I am wondering why.

Especially when most providers I know wear sweat pants, scrubs and/or yoga pants for those SAME reasons so why shouldn't a child be comfy and able to freely move too??

Pj pants or leggings? Long sleeve pajama top, long sleeved shirt? I just don't see the difference. Most the actually "clothing" that kids wear that is comfortable is the same as pj's except for the fire resistant thing. Otherwise the same cartoon characters and basic functions are the same in my opinion.

Overnight diaper? Um, yeah that would be a problem but for different reasons.

TOTALLY agree about the skinny jeans and collared shirt!!

I honestly expect what my DCP's expect. I have honestly had comments made because my son was still in pajamas(he had just crawled out of bed) and have been asked if we had a rough morning. To which I've said Yes!!! Preparing for daycare is hard work. Anyway I also blanch if the kids are dressed too fancy because I know they will get dirty somehow throughout the day.

for me pajamas=underwear or at least very privetу style of home clothes. No pajamas in my daycare. There are a lot of very comfortable type of clothes for getting out of home.

Years ago...(like 25) I had two children come at 5:30 in the morning. Their wonderful mom gave them a bath a night, put on clean sweatpants and sweatshirt in place of pajamas. Got them up, brought them to me ready for the day. Genius!

I'm honestly in the boat of I don't care at all what a child wears to my home daycare. Unless I specifically requested certain types of clothes for an activity that day, I could honestly care less. Most of my kids arrive in sleepers, but we don't have anyone to impress -- it's just us spending the day together! Finally, My age groups always manage to get dirty or "crusty" during the day from food or play and I have to clean them up and change them anyway. My toddlers aren't the cleanest of eaters! Lol

You mean you couldn't care less?

It's so much fun when the unregistereds disagree with themselves.

No. It's not. Really it's not.

I guess. I'm usually calcare but I don't like to sign in. Even if I wanted to, I can't remember the password half the time. I don't need a special name for people to believe what I say has value. So, I was the one who said 'sell me the gd burger', and 'don't be obtuse' does that somehow make what I said more honest? More believable? More reasonable? How about less so, if you don't care for the calcare persona? I find all of the forum name login stuff unnecessary for me. I read and throw in my 2 cents every few days and I have for many years! What does it matter? I find many of the conversations interesting and informative and sometimes shocking! Sometimes I reply. Sometimes I don't. I'm sure you don't care if I do or not. So what is with the animosity towards a user not logged in? Yeah there's a nutso once in a blue moon that tries to correct grammar or make some absurd assertion to get people riled up, but usually unregistereds are normal providers and parents that don't need to be recognized.
