[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nap time is not required by law. Daycares do long nap times to get breaks to the detriment of those of us with 4 and 5 year olds that now have them awake until 10pm at night. It’s the reason we pulled our 4yo out of daycare. The preschool we found ran from 9-2 every day with a 20 min rest after lunch. [/quote] Rest time is required by law at any facility that has children under 5 for more than a certain number of hours (check local regulations). Agree that it’s a problem for most parents of older kids if their child actually naps, but this is a widespread requirement. In MA where we were previously there were also some regulations against preventing a child from sleep or waking them….. unless you got a doctor’s note! We also liked the switch to a part time preschool but that depends on family circumstances. [/quote]
