Some Random Questions...

oh, I love those. why don't they make them in my size... I'd dare to wear a shorter skirt (all mine are floor-length).
and onesies.
and sleep'n'plays.
dammit, all good stuff is made in baby size.

They sell ALL of that ^^^ in adult sizes..... ::::

They do sell them in adult sizes! I own a couple!

Kohl's has a great selection! They are usually marketed under "golf skorts" but if you Google "skorts" you will find many options!

I guess I'm going to Kohl's to at least try some on, then...
I have a few long-sleeved onesies from Amazon. they are okay, but a little thin. work well with leggings and a short-sleeved or sleeveless sweater dress. I can deal with those, but still searching for a better option. Ann Taylor used to make those, but not anymore...

:: I've seen some interesting footsie pj's at walmart!!


Thanks for everyone's help. I had a little girl come yesterday in a dress with TINY shorts under (which still showed her unders) but it was a "fancy" dress, so I changed her for outside play. She just seemed so uncomfortable trying to keep it nice! I will definitely be adding "dress in play clothes" to my handbook!

I thought about making a post for each, but figured this would be easier for everyone! Just some things I've been wondering and thought I would ask you lovely people!

1) How do you do a deposit/last two weeks payment
I don't do a two week deposit. I would LOVE to. But it is unheard of in my area. Even with centers.

2) Do you/would you consider a dress code?
I sort of have a dress code, I call them guidelines in my HB. It is worded as follows:

•Children are expected to arrive dressed in weather appropriate play clothes.

•Children must wear socks and sturdy walking or running closed toe shoes. No flip flops, crocks or open toe shoes are allowed.

•Shoes must be easy for your child to put on and take off independently. Shoes with laces are not permitted.

•Shorts or pants must be worn under skirts and dresses.

•Tights, belts, suspenders, overalls, jewelry and any other clothing options deemed unsafe or restrictive are not permitted to be worn while in care.


3) Do you offer overnight/out of hour care, what do you charge if yes? I had one child who I did overnights with when I first started. When she would stay overnight I treated her like my own. She slept in the spare bedroom in a pack and play (she was 1 year at the time) and I had a video monitor in the room. I charged a flat rate for the night.

Would I do it now? No, no, and just no. I have the children enough hours throughout the week
