[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with others op, you won't find a place that doesn't have nap time because it is part of licensing requirements but you do want a place that is flexible. Most will have the children lay for a certain amount of time and then if they are still awake they can read books etc on their mat. most kids do surprisingly adjust to this though it is hard as they get close to kindergarten they are often very done with it. We still did quiet time at home which helped. our routine stayed the same. Lunch then quiet time. They don't have to stay in bed at home during quiet time but it still helped reinforce there is a restful time after lunch. Also to the parents blaming the teacher for cranky kids. [b]Surely you can understand that kids are typically more exhausted by a day at daycare with lots of other kids than weekends at home? There are many kids who need a nap during daycare days and don't nap on the weekends[/b]. [/quote] Surely you can understand parents do actually spend time with their children at the end of the day and can tell if they need to nap on daycare days? [/quote] Many of these parents boast about their kid going to bed at 7, after they pick them up at 5:30 or 6:00. So, they aren't really spending much time with them at all at the end of the day.
