[quote=Anonymous]i am otherwise happy there but part of it is definitely because it convenient and she could stay in a quality program through preschool. its also very difficult to find part-time care that is open past 5:30 pm and we need that to accomodate work schedules. she is there 3 days a week and some days are better than others as far as napping, but its definitely way less than what she gets at home. i have talked to them but they just say they try to put her down at least twice and she often "refuses." on non-daycare days when we are out and about, she'll sleep in the car and be fine mood wise (so not getting two structured naps on off days and she's still okay). she was in an in-home for a few months before BH (from 6 to 9 months) and she didn't really nap well there either. they would have to put her in a swaddle sack even though she was way too big for that. the provider also complained a few times that she wouldn't nap and "woke" all the other kids up during the nap time. i feel safer with the greater degree of regulation found at a center and there are few center choices where i live. the in home we were in was shiny and new but they didn't follow regulations with ratio and had other issues and i was uncomfortable with the lack of oversight that in homes seem to have. we're also expecting a new baby soon so i'm not keen on moving her right now when she is familiar there and the rest of her world is about to be turned upside down.
