[quote=Anonymous]We are Jewish and while the daycare we use isn’t Jewish, she has been very respectful about it.  We go to an at home daycare in the mount vernon area.  Yes, the house is decked out for Christmas and they do an Easter egg hunt, but my kids have always brought home Hanukah crafts, never brought home a Santa or a bunny.  She has helped them keep kosher for Passover and read Chanukah and Passover stories to the kids.  I’m sure if i brought in books or activities for Purim, RH, YK, Sukkot, Shavuot etc she would do them as well.  My eldest has transitioned to Gesher at this point, if anything, having that background (plus being the only Jewish family on our block) has opened up many discussions about being Jewish and also helped her develop Jewish pride even prior to starting at Gesher.  I do believe many people who run an in home daycare would be respectful and open to incorporating Jewish holidays and traditions into their activities, especially if you can help guide them.[/quote]
