    Well, you'd think she'd open up her own in-home daycare if it's so great and easy.

      And she could offer care from 6am to midnight 7 days a week.

      For a minute, I thought about joining over there, but I decided to keep out.
      Children are little angels, even when they are little devils.
      They are also our future.

        I was on a parenting forum before I became a provider. Lets say I had to stop once I became a provider and saw what parents were ACTUALLY like ::

        Should be a fun read tonight after work!

          Right? Maybe then she'd understand why providers who manage to offer those hours look "slovenly" and have "dirty" houses. They can't sleep, bathe or clean, they are in survival mode.

          Many of us started there and learned our limitations.
          - Unless otherwise stated, all my posts are personal opinion and worth what you paid for them.

            Good grief! She wanted "affordable" (what does that even mean in this situation?) care for 18+ hours a day and weekends? I highly doubt she was working 18 hours shifts. But she expected the childcare provider to work 24/7? And to be at her beck and call? And be paid next to nothing for it? Ridiculous.

              Yes, and we are spoiled princess brats for not providing it to them.

                I have people like her sending an inquiry about my preschool a few times a year.

                When they hear my days and hours open, which are already listed online, they always inform me, "Well, that just won't work because I have to work!" They're aggressive. They're rude. They're SHOCKED when I tell them that 100% of my enrolled families also WORK and 75% of my enrolled families have two working parents. I either get no reply e-mail or I get stuttering on the other line and they end the conversation pretty quickly.

                Everyone providing care doesn't have to be open the days and hours that every parent in the world needs. happyface

                    Actually, folks--this is a disaster. They've figured us out. We're a bunch of lazy money-grubbers and now the jig is up. We're all going to have to quit, and let the OP run our day cares.

                        My daycare kids wish my husband was with them all day - he's a superstar in their eyes. He gets all the hugs and kisses in the morning. It's a good thing I don't get jealous too easily!
