[quote=Anonymous]As a home child care provider, I can say that I feel sorry for the provider described above... " Wow...3 weeks that seems really high. We have used two in-home daycares. One took off federal holidays and the week between christmas and new years. The other is hardly ever closed (not even all the federal holidays)." Wow is right! When does this person go to the doctor, dentist, spend time with family, or, (gasp) RELAX? Home child care providers work 10 or more hours a day often without a break. We spend many more hours planning activities, buying supplies, preparing food, cleaning, meeting required training hours, etc. I would like to think that parents would WANT the person who cares for their child to be relaxed and as un-stressed as possible. If Grandma or Auntie can't watch Baby for a couple of weeks a year then perhaps home daycare is not for you. [/quote]
