We are meeting with/ touring a daycare today. I feel like this will probably be the one we chose. It is supposed to be the best in our town and there are only a few others I would even consider. I have a few questions I want to ask. How many babies per adult? Will they feed him pumped breastmilk? How strict are they about sending sick babies home- i am already worrying that he will be sick a lot because of daycare. Are they cpr certified? Do you have any other suggestions of things to ask or look for while I am there?

Re: Meeting with daycare today-suggestions?
I did the same thing this morning, and so did MrsAtch! She posted earlier today for advice- here's the link:

Thank you Froggy for posting the thread!
GL on your daycare meeting today. After visiting and observings all day-cares you want to see, definitely go with your gut on this one.

usually its something like 4-6 babies per adult depending on state. i think for newborns its 4, older is 6. yes they typically will feed pumped breastmilk, they are used to it! Sending sick babies home depends per day care. Most are very up to date with first aid certifications. My best advice is go with your gut instinct. I found that Primrose near us was more "upscale" but I loved the director at Goddard and recommend them to everyone.
my only other suggestion is to look at the space and the amount of things they have to stimulate the babies. do they look entertained (look in the older classes) or are they dawdling around? I rejected a daycare because the space was extremely small and another because the kids all looked bored out of their minds.
