[quote=Anonymous]I have worked in a baby room before.  To some extent, you do have to give up control over little details when your child is in group care and also realize that your child will behave differently in different settings with different caregivers.

The providers are being passive aggressive but likely also just trying to engage as little as possible to cut down on hearing your complaints.

Some moms swear their baby wouldn't touch cheerios at home but at daycare we couldn't get the kid to stop trying to swipe another kids and shove them in his own mouth.  Same with various types of foods.

The BF vs. bottle thing.  They had already started a bottle and you wanted them to remove it and wait for you.  Do you think  your child would have reacted happily?  They also can't know if you really will be there "right away". I heard that many times from BF moms but things happen. You could have been stopped on the way out the building, a wait at the elevator, a last minute phone call, etc.  A good way to handle it is if you want to continue to BF at daycare, set up a specific time each day and commit to it.

Tummy sleeping is a no go so if you are concerned definitely mention that.  We always put babies to sleep on their back - no exceptions.[/quote]
