[quote=Anonymous]The daycare we loved for our son, that our daughter was suppose to join this September no longer had space because of new guidelines. My big things when looking at a daycare are food and outdoor time. Don’t really care for curriculum as much as I want my kid running around and playing. Old daycare  they were outside for three hours per day on a beautiful playground. New daycare has no playground, kids are only outside for a chain gang walk around a parking lot. Didn’t realize I would hate it so much. Also realizing that the classroom is more set up like Kindergarten for my 3 year old with no play areas. Not really sure what my 18 month old does all day and communication with teachers is hard because not all speak fluent English.

However this is the 4th daycare for my three year old. (Started one at 18 months but then husband decided to leave job and become stay at home Dad one month later. Started morning preschool for him a year later. Husband grew a part time side hustle into full time business and 3 year old went to the daycare we loved full time in February but got taken out in March because of Covid.) He transitions with new people well and doesn’t appear to be an issue. 18 month old is in the middle of stranger danger and still crying at drop off. This daycare is her first time in a daycare as my husband had her full time and then my Mom watched her in February until Covid closure.

Is it wrong to put son in a fifth daycare setting and move daughter after only a couple weeks? It’s just not feeling right. May have the opportunity for a new daycare that would check my food and outdoor time boxes.[/quote]
