[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No way do you get your deposit back. If it's a county mandate, ask the county for your money back! Then get a nanny. I work in a child care center and guess what? The 2 year olds have learned to wear masks. [/quote] PP is right. It is a county mandate. If you feel that strongly about “no masks in preschools,” then your best bet is to contact your county (whoever is making these decisions) or even the CDC and propose/speak up/lobby that they change the rules. Montgomery County mandates 2 and up. CDC mandates 2 and up. Maryland mandates 5 and up. Virginia mandates 5 and up. The other posters wrote that DC mandates 2 and up. If your daycare is in Montgomery County, then the daycare must follow county rules. If enough people disagree with the Montgomery County mandate and speak up, then perhaps the county may change their standpoint and mandates. If you choose to send your kid to a daycare in this county or jurisdiction, he or she will likely have to wear a mask wherever they go. Otherwise, you can move or drive to a daycare in Virginia or another county in Maryland where there is no such mandate -or- hire a nanny. I personally agree with the Montgomery County/DC mandate that preschoolers should be masked when indoors since they are not vaccinated and there are so many new variants that are more contagious. [/quote] There’s no county mandate. The in-home daycare our DC attends does not require masks on the kids and has undergone a routine inspection only a couple months ago. If the masks are truly mandated why weren’t they cited? I’d like to see a link to an actual mandate. Don’t just believe what Elrich says because he has a history of verbally stating restrictions that aren’t legally required.[/quote] How did OP’s daycare get in trouble if there’s no mandate or authority? OP’s post- “The daycare had another person complain to the County, they were inspected, and are now required to have all 2 year olds masked.” [/quote]
