[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you all actually holding your babies 24/7? Even when I was home I put my kid in a bouncy seat and walked away from time to time. So he cried a bit. Babies cry -- it's what they do.

Some of your expectations of care are way overinflated.  Babies need to be warm, fed, clean, cuddled, and put down from time to time. [/quote]

I agree. I think too many parents expect providers to be able to do exactly as they do at home. The one PP who said her provider wore her daughter all day. THAT is ridiculous. And dangerous. When provider cooks, did she wear the baby then? My niece did that. She wouldnt/couldnt put the baby down according to her, so she wore the baby all the time. (her first child she apparently carried him on her hip All. The. Time.). Anyway, she was at the stove boiling water to make spaghetti while she was wearing the baby. Honestly, it IS okay if babies cry a little bit, but for gods sake (and the babys safety), Put him or her DOWN!!!! [/quote]
