[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the day cares will start to re-open if they haven’t already. I have two larger center day cares in my neighborhood, and judging from traffic one was open all along (not sure about the other one). My friends have two kids in a home day care and it’s planning to reopen sometime after Memorial Day.

As for camps, that’s a little more iffy ... Sleepaway camps seem to not be happening, County/rec camps are in danger too, but private camps like the martial arts places will want to do everything they can to make money so I think they will try to open as soon as they can. The large center day cares do take elementary age kids and in fact contract with the schools for before and after care. So they’re accustomed to elementary-age kids. You could look into that if there are some day cares in your neighborhood, that way all your kids can be at the same place which will be easier for you. [/quote]

You can’t possibly be a parent or in a major city. Daycares have been shut down by the state. The only open centers received waivers to provide care to children of medical staff. Daycares have huge waitlists and will not take random elementary school kids. What planet are you on?[/quote]

I live in DC and my daycare is open and has been this whole time. We are not essential workers, either. [/quote]
