I just went back to work this past week. In addition to the transition being rough leaving my son after 2+ months off, I was just really unhappy with the daycare. We had interviewed them, took a tour and were very pleased when we signed him up (before he was even born). One day for lunch I made an unexpected visit during lunch and he was sitting in a swing crying all alone. I was told he hadn't taken a nap all morning and after I got him to sleep, they didn't have a crib assigned for him to sleep in (after already being there for for 2 days!). I was pissed, left work early and didn't take him back (he was there for 2 days and we've given them over 600 dollars! ugh!!).
?We have some people who can watch him temporarily (family members) until the end of the summer, but we'll need to find a permanent and reliable place for him. I don't even know where to begin.
?We were totally convinced the daycare we had picked was the one and it was a flop. I couldn't bear going through a bunch of daycares and being displeased and worried that my son's not getting the attention he deserves. I can't afford not to work...?
?anyone have any suggestions????
Re: daycare - wwyd?
aw, that sucks. Do you have friends/family/co-workers who you could get recommendations from?
