When you send your kids back to daycare???

[Anonymous]

Assuming your daycare reopened and took proper steps (sanitizing, hand washing, etc), when would you feel comfortable sending your kids back?

I think most people will hang on until their employers make them go back to offices or their employers say you can’t wfh with kids.

Too early to tell. I think we need to see how the stats shake out over the next month or so.

I’m not for awhile. If our daycare reopens, I’m still going to wait until the inevitable bump passes. I can keep working from home. DD is 2.

Yeah I want things back to normal as much as the next person, but not at the risk of others. Since I can work from home and have flex hours (which I acknowledge is a huge privilege), I am going to be cautious.

It’s still way too early to tell. If older kid doesn’t have camp this summer, I may as well keep younger child home too.

What stats or indicators would make you feel better, given the lack of testing available? It’s not like they can test all kids and teachers every day before coming in.

Going to wait for the cases and deaths in the DMV to.settle down and then maybe 2 weeks after things reopen to see if there is a spike after.

I’m waiting until employer opens back up

I would but my kids don’t get sick from daycare for what we reason - each has had one illness before K (strep for one, a single ear infection for one, and HFM for the final one). I get why others might be more gun shy.

I put my son back in. The school has very strict safety protocols in place and I felt comfortable with the risk. He is doing really well now, much better than he was at home.

I was unpleasantly surprised though by the handful of people that felt the need to shame me for this decision🙁

DH is insisting we send ours back tomorrow. (Not sure what will happen tomorrow morning as we've already spent yesterday and today locked in knock-down, drag-out fighting.)
Our daycare never closed but has very few students currently attending and also has very strict safety protocols. I'm a basketcase over it all, but thank you for posting as it makes me feel less like we're the only ones.

Our class has two kids attending and one only goes until lunchtime. We’re not going but are in touch with one of the families.
