[quote=Anonymous]I took the opposite approach of PP who recommended strict sick policy daycares. I went for a mask-optional, pragmatic daycare that understands kids get runny noses in winter but will exclude for anything beyond that. We haven't had too many absences, and no COVID quarantines (knock on wood) but a few here and there. Here's what I do when kid is out of daycare. -flexible work - I work from home generally, and I will prioritize 6am-7:30am, 12:00-2:00 (naptime) and 5:30pm onward (when DH is home) for major projects. -split shifts with DH -I have a couple backup babysitters who are ok being around kids with mild cold as long as COVID test negative. I use home rapid tests frequently. This is by far the best option because no one's work schedule is impacted and you still have childcare. Look on care.com -the rip cord: asking out-of-state (but not too far away) grandma to come. I would do this as long as kid does not actively have covid.[/quote]
