[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My in-home daycare is now 8 - 5 p.m. instead of 7 - 5:30 p.m.  It's somewhat of a joke that they claim the shortened hours are for extra cleaning because the daycare owner lives across the street and she leaves when the last kid is picked up at 5 so no one is staying and cleaning up.

On the plus side, your in-home daycare can probably return to normal hours whenever they choose to (maybe when the plurality of parents can no longer telework?) whereas centers will be hampered by the numerous issues the center director mentioned.[/quote]

At least where I am there are plenty of centers that have hours beyond that and it doesn't seem to be an issue but obviously this is going to vary by state/locality.  We are actually moving our older DD to a center since there are not many kids her age at the in-home daycare.

Your point is kinda exactly why it's frustrating though because she could operate under normal hours but it seems like she has no plans to do so.  She used to be 6:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. and then she cut it back to 7 - 5:30 and now 8-5 and it's hard to get out of work in time to get there by 5.  I get it though, she runs her business and she can set the hours even without manufacturing a reason, it's just a little harder to make it work than it needs to be.[/quote]
