Help on Explaining to Parent Why 12mo is to Follow Same Sched - As Everyone Else

[Blackcat31]

At 12 months she is probably still on the bottle/ breast first thing in the morning. My 18 month old still takes a morning bottle and evening bottle and doesn't eat breakfast until around 9:30am.

What parents do at home is their choice but often times licensing dictates things such as meal times and bottle feeding. Plus when enrolling your child in "group" care the schedule the group follows is more of a priority than at-home schedules. A provider can't follow individualized schedules when caring for more than one child.

Other than infants (under 12 months) which is why we are limited to how many we can have at one time.
