[quote=Anonymous]DD started back at her daycare center in August at 17 months after it was closed from March through the summer.

It's been great. She had zero trouble adjusting. They don't wear masks under 2 but the teachers do. She was speech delayed when she started (yes, she was assessed), and her speech has exploded since she started and no longer qualifies for services. She often would talk more at daycare than at home - speech therapist says it's normal for her to talk more in a school setting and good for her to be around other children. There's no restriction on teachers holding or comforting babies. They don't try to keep the children social distanced from what I can tell. No Covid cases so far.

We will need to try masks when she moves to the 2s room. I'm a little worried about the impact on her speech, but from what I have observed so far, I'm hopeful it won't be an issue.

DD was at an in-home briefly while we waiting for the center to reopen. Some of the children, and the owner, wore masks. It felt like a very warm, calm place and I had no concerns about the impact of Covid precautions. Often came to pick up DD and the owner was holding her (she was the youngest).[/quote]
