Home

Home is always a place where child learn a lot of things like etiquette and how to respect other,and one more thing child can have a bonding with his parents and other family member.So home is always a better place where child can explore himself.

I work in a daycare center and have to disagree with some of the things stated on here. in my state the ratios for home daycares are alt higher than centers ex: home daycare can have 8 to 1 including 2 infants. center ratios are 4 to 1 on infants and 6 to 1 on toddlers. so the children get alot more one to one time in a center. also, we have someone cook the meals and clean up so that is not time away from the children. also, as for as being invited to graduations and birthday parties etc. this is very common for our center staff to be invited. we have one family which both parents travel occasionally for their jobs and if both are out of town at the same time will have one of the staff members babysit for them. maybe I work in an exceptional center but we become very close to the families who trust us with their child everyday!
