[quote=Anonymous]What you’re describing is unacceptable but sadly very common for infant daycares. The accuracy of those sheets is a joke - both centers I had my DD in really were awful about them. It’s really virtually impossible with 1:3 or 1:4 ratios for infants to get attentive, loving care in traditional child care centers. The teachers basically just give bottles and change diapers and document all day long while rotating the kids onto the floor, in devices. in cribs, and out for a required walk (at least in DC but often staff try to skip them due to weather). It’s not their fault, the ratios don’t really allow kids much more than having their basic needs met. If you can at all consider a nanny share I would absolutely encourage you to. Nannies aren’t perfect and come with their own set of challenges but I think would be so much better for you. Infant daycares just generally stink, unfortunately. [/quote]
