[quote=Anonymous]This is the quandry raised by using an in home provider dependant upon a single person to be avaialble for the children it its care.  Of course everyone needs  a vacation or two a year, I think 3 weeks a year is completely reasonable.  On the other hand, it is really hard for families to track their vacations to those of the caregiver and alternative care for an infant or toddler is not always easily attainable, so the concern that families considering using home daycare have are also reasonable.  There is no reason to get defensive about the concern of a potential parent, he/she is going through the process of considering what the cost of in home daycare is and this is clearly one of them.  It is also entirely reasonable for a caregiver that wants to appeal to her customers to make her vacation more workable for parents by limiting them to common vacation times such as the holidays and August.  All small business have these types of costs for the small business owner, it is simply different than working for a larger business or government where there is more flexibility in choosing leave times.[/quote]
