Seraphim Posted August 2, 2019 Author Share Posted August 2, 2019 Today she wanted her son ready 2 hours early for pick up because they are leaving for the weekend. She is half hour late, AGAIN. Whenever they want an early puck up they are at least half hour late. Minimum. ๐ Link to comment

Seraphim Posted August 8, 2019 Author Share Posted August 8, 2019 The last few weeks have been mostly good. We had the eldestโs Birthday party today. Behaviour has been pretty good. ย The youngest however has hand foot and mouth. Link to comment
reinventmyself Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 ย The youngest however has hand foot and mouth.ย That's extremely contagious. Have you checked the other kids for it? I remember my sis in law bringing her son to a bday party with it, not knowing what it was. Every child, including my two ended up with it. Link to comment

Here according to the Ministry of Education if they have a doctorโs note saying they can return to daycare they can. The Ministry of Education runs all daycares. I have a doctorโs note for that child. All that can be done is inform the other parents and they can pull their kids if they choose. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted August 8, 2019 Author Share Posted August 8, 2019 I just talked to the other parents, their kids have had it before . Link to comment
Seraphim Posted August 8, 2019 Author Share Posted August 8, 2019 I know they can get it again depending upon which virus they caught but still the Ministry of education doesnโt find it a big deal . Link to comment

Seraphim Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 It is! It means my daycare is thoroughly safety inspected . The base commander just signs off on my file and then I am free to run my business on base. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 I am really giving considerable thought to hiring someone else. I had a very impromptu interview yesterday and the parents will let me know today if they go with me or not. If so I NEED someone else. ย I asked Jโs eldest daughter to be a back up in case either of us get sick and she said no because it is a 15 mins to drive in from her place. Whaaaaa? ๐ย Whatever ,all useless. I am no longer funding her other daughterโs Scentsy business either. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 I have a new baby starting full time on Monday. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 So our new little starts tomorrow . Link to comment
Seraphim Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 I am a little anxious about how this will all work out once J is not here for drop off and pick up . I have asked her 3 times now when she will be returning and leaving and 3 times she has said she will tell me more later that day and never does . ย I have decided for bus times I will take the infants with me and my son can stay with the toddlers and pre schoolers. The bus stop is across the street from my house and takes literally only 5 mins. Link to comment
Batya33 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 So I'll throw in my two cents. He can be alone with them if he is certified in CPR/childcare all that you are certified in. Otherwise what I would do is what I've seen done at other daycares including one I visited a few years ago. Have the kids hold onto a rope (meaning not a leash situation!! - a long rope where they walk one behind the other holding on -yes you hold the end and your son holds the other end but meaning they're not attached to anything -they are holding on). Walk to bus stop in that way and make it a game. 5 minutes, right? But if I were a parent I would want to know that there was a time of 5 minutes when my child wasn't being supervised by a certified person and then I would decide whether it's ok. It might be very ok and it might not and I would want to know. Heaven forbid there's a boo boo even during that 5 minutes and a parent finds out the kids weren't being supervised by a certified person - well that wouldn't be worth it to me. I'm just making a suggestion, it's my opinion, and I know it's a tough situation. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 I canโt do a rope situation I have two infants who donโt walk and a two-year-old who thinks itโs funny to run away . Link to comment

I would not leave them for 5 minutes supervised by a non-certified person. Not because it happens to be your son -would say that about any adult. Unless the parents know and agree. They really might be ok with it! Link to comment
