[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're not able to go back because of staffing issues. In spite of DC's ECE Equity Fund, where child care teachers with a Bachelor's degree will be making 75,000 per year, we can't find anyone to hire. We are stretching as much as we can and combining children in the mornings/evenings, but staff can only work so many hours a day and we have to follow licensing ratios. [/quote] I think this is it. It means that RTO is a terrible idea, but the men in charge will push it anyway. [/quote] +1. For many families at our daycare, it only works because there is always one parent WFH. There's other stuff our daycare used to provide, like a hot lunch, that went away during the pandemic and I don't think they ever intend to bring back. Our director always plays dumb when someone brings it up, like oh I forgot we ever did that, etc. [/quote]
