[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a former home daycare assistant turned teacher in a large child care chain. I am beyond against home daycares. It was horrible working there, and I did not last long. The lady who ran the daycare was as sweet as she could be in front of the parents but once her doors closed, the babies would stay in the crib all day, she would smoke, and abuse the children. I left that home daycare and wrote a written note to all the parents on my last day, telling them of the things I witnessed. I do not care how sweet you think a person is that runs a home daycare center, but they are not supervised at all. No one is above them. Please go to a child care center unless you really know the person running the home daycare like a close friend or family member. Even then, I would be hesitant. [/quote]

WHOA I take extreme offense here for several reasons-the first being WHY in the world did you not TURN THIS WOMAN IN???? Not sure what area you are talking about but I have a home daycare and AM monitored and regulated including surprise visits by licensing and the food program. If indeed what you described was taking place you are a MANDATORY REPORTER and were obligated to report any of the above described incidents immediately! I have been licensed for 9 years and care for each child in a loving nurturing environment no matter who is present. I have no "assistants" and care for 6 children maximum. I do NOT think you should lump all home daycares together ESPECIALLY since YOU were neglectful in reporting what you were part of when working in one that should have been shut down. [/quote]
