Positive for In-Home Daycare

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Snow days...all the daycare centers shut down for the day but not the in-home!  Hudson won't have as many kids to play with though today!

We are going to get 6-8 inches total - already 3-4 on the ground and the roads SUCKED this morning!

    our daycare center very rarely closes for snow days. the schools in the area have had a few snow days, but our center has remained open.

    just sayin :)

    Must be a KC Mo thing then because all the Creative Worlds and Kindercares are shut down!  We couldn't believe it this morning!

    Just curious because I know I wouldn't want to - but aren't you nervous to drive with LO in the snow? Luckily I work in school so when there is snow I typically don't have to drive - but if I didn't I still think I would take a snow day so I wouldn't have to drive with LO if the roads were dangerous.

    Of course I am nervous.  Just mainly because of the other drivers.  I have a 4 wheel drive and am very careful when I drive but there are others that are very careless (not everyone, but some that think they are macho in the snow).  If I stayed at home though during the winter when it snowed with LO, I would never be at work.  We can get storms one after another sometimes here.  Since I work an hourly job and don't have days I can take off on the spur of the moment it makes sense for me to come to work if I have a vehicle I can get out with.  I was worried the whole time though and will continue to worry as well.

    Yup!  When I was working and when it snows here, EVERYTHING shuts down.  Along with all the schools closings is a huge list of daycares that are closed as well - but not the home daycares! 

    Sure, I was nervous to drive with LOs, but sometimes you HAVE to be at work, no choice and no one else to watch them.  You do the best you can.

    My in-home DCP is great because, as a teacher, she doesn't charge if I have a snow day and want to keep DS home!  She also doesn't charge me if he's sick.  She's just too nice of a person.  I told her we would be paying her regardless of what she says, and she insisted that we not.
