[quote=Anonymous]BIL in Chicago has had his kids (4 and 1.5 yo) back in daycare for about 4 months and daycare has been closed for 6 weeks of that time from 3 different COVID cases, two of which resulted in “outbreaks” at the center - I think 7 people -kids and staff - for one of them and I can’t remember what how many for the other. The third instance there was just the one positive. They do temp checks, teachers and ages 3 and up wear masks. It happens. BIL & SIL don’t have flexible employers, so daycare is their best option, but they’re not thrilled about paying 100% cost for almost 50% closure rate, unpredictability, and risk.

Our kids are about the same age and we’re making it work at home somehow, but it has been rough. Rough. But our daycare, which we love, has a lot of families who are not able to work from home, and our youngest is too young to wear a mask. We decided not to take the risk. I hear things are going well there and I’m happy for them. But we’re going to try to get through until the spring before sending kids back. [/quote]
