[quote=Anonymous]This is inherent in daycares with lackadaisical parents who do idiotic things.  You have several options.

1. Look into the law.  If your childcare closes, you’re entitled to up to 12 weeks off.
2. Look for another large center which has only had a few brief closures, and make sure they can clearly explain the quarantine from other classes.
3. Look for an in-home daycare, and ask to speak to other current parents.  Get the closure rate from them, NOT the owner.
4. Look for an agency, to provide backup card last minute, and stick with your center.
5. Look for a part-time nanny (shoot for a minimum of 15 hours per week) who is willing to go full-time+ last minute (it will likely be extremely expensive) when the daycare closes.
6. Bite the bullet and switch to a full time nanny, live-in or live-out.
7. If you have the space, consider an AP.  If you are upfront with them, explain that you will schedule them for full hours every week, but as long as daycare is open, they will only need to do pick up, drop off and minimal help at home?  You should have several interested.[/quote]
