[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daycare doesn't use bouncers or swings as a matter of policy (I think it also has to do with their NAEYC accreditation).  There are floor things that they hang out on for tummy time and so forth.  I think one of the ladies has taken a shine to my baby, because she is always being held when I go in.  (Clearly teacher's pet...)

Not sure that you really play with a 12 week old...mine is still just starting to try to grasp objects...she mostly just likes looking around and doing tummy time.  I think floor time is pretty important at this age.  She really doesn't like being read to (bummer).  [/quote]

Having worked in an infant room, I assure the teacher picks the child up and interacts with the child when they know it's pick up time...[/quote]

HAHA.  This.  I also worked in an infant room.  We always scrambled to interact with the baby when we knew mom was coming.  In our case we could usually see the car out the window.  Even if we couldn't, we knew approximately what time each parent came.  And often another employee would pop her head in to give us the heads up.  No infants were ever neglected, but we knew who wrote the checks every week.[/quote]

Nice try defensive SAHM, but you cannot see cars from any of the childcare rooms, and we come at different times every day.  Go get a job.[/quote]

I was going to say the same thing as the earlier PP's.  Daycare providers know when you pick up your kid and are very good at making it look like your child is their favorite.  Sorry, this is not a defensive SAHM, just someone who knows the truth about infant daycare.  Yup, I worked in one.  FWIW, the worst experience of my life-there is no way in hell I would ever put an infant in daycare.  Parents just don't know what goes on in those places.  [/quote]

Oh, you again. EVERY. THREAD. Our daycare has 4 teachers for 6 infants. I work from home and come at all random times. But try again to tell me my baby is neglected. Asshole.[/quote]
DIFFERENT poster here. The woman is damn right and you know it, so leave her alone.[/quote]
