[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So does she have a disability that prevents her from walking well or is it just because she is newly 2 and a lot of 2 yos have trouble with stairs? If it's the latter, I can see why they'd refuse because what if there are several 2 yos there and they all need to be carried in an emergency? It would not be the ADA I'm concerned about, but rather safety. This is why in my city, all daycares with young children are required to be on the first floor -- the teachers cannot safely escort a large group of non and barely mobile children out from higher floors. [/quote] If the issue is that lots of 2 year olds have trouble with the stairs, then they would definitely be obliged to accommodate her because all 2 year olds would need to be accommodated. In that scenario, the daycare would be better advised to have the two year old classroom on the ground floor. [/quote]
