[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pick your kid up when you are done working. Take them with you if you are going shopping or doing an errand. There is no reason to leave them there until 6 unless your work schedule requires it. Maximize your time with your kid as much as you can, even if they seem to enjoy daycare.[/quote] +100 most daycares will also tell you that they are open those hours to accommodate different schedules but they definitely don't expect people to use the full hours. It has varied for me over the years but my spouse and I stagger our schedules so he drops off and starts work more like 9ish. I start earlier and pick up around 4-4:30. If you are able to swing it, research tends to support that most kids tend to do better with shorter days in daycare, even if they are happy and fine there. Obviously this isn't possible for everyone and the kids are ok! But don't leave them there on a regular basis once you're done with work :)[/quote]
