[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At that price point, look into chains. Home daycares should be cheaper. [/quote] At that price point AND because this was just sprung on OP and not actually explained, look elsewhere. If you are prepared to pay $430/week anyway, you have more options.[/quote] It doesn't sound like they just "sprung" it on OP. She is still expecting and doesn't even start for another two months. This is ample notice. I am a board member for a local program and costs have definitely increased. Gloves were $30 per case pre-pandemic and we haven't been able to find them for less than $80 per case for the past year. 5 cases per week = an extra $1000 per month in expenses with a budget that's already tight and that's just for gloves. We are also having to increase wages to compete with unemployment which offered $20+ per hour to stay home with the federal CARES funds. Programs are increasing rates just to stay above water.[/quote] Why are daycares still requiring employees to wear gloves for an airborne virus?? If this is strictly a pandemic protocol that seems like an unnecessary measure that could be eliminated tight now.[/quote] NP. Licensing still requires it for COVID. Before COVID we used gloves only at diaper time. [/quote]
