[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We switched to a new daycare and started back at the beginning of July.  It’s been great.

Our old daycare finally just reopened and had a teacher test positive the second week.  I don’t think they did anything wrong, they had all the protocol in place, just unlucky.  So far no other staff or students there have tested positive (we still get their emails and speak to some families there).  But it is a good reminder that daycare is still risky.  I wouldn’t be surprised if there were lots of shut downs again as local cases go back up.[/quote]

In other words, if you don't mind the risk of Covid, sending kids to daycare is fine.[/quote]

PP here.  There’s risk everywhere.  It’s a calculated risk and for us the benefits outweighs it.  Benefits include keeping our jobs and socialization for our 3 year old. Daycare is the least bad option we have right now.[/quote]

I agree. It could be a year or longer until a vaccine is available.  For some high risk families, it may make sense to keep kids home until then, but that isn’t the case for us.  My DH’s workplace is more risky than daycare, but I doubt many people would suggest he just quit his job.[/quote]
