[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the last two PPs. How old are the kids too? At your second interview or after receiving the job offer is a great time to ask if the kids have a set quiet time during the day. If they don't; tell the parents you consider small batches (depending on the ages) of independent play essential and typically a schedule 20-60min (again depending on age) of quiet play after lunch. Ask if they're comfortable with that or if they have a different preference for how the kids wind down mid-day. Don't call it a break (the truth is you won't truly get one), just approach it as a childcare professional who knows 1) kids need to be able to play by themselves and 2) kids need some kind of rest period during the day or they are terrors at bedtime. Shouldn't be a problem.[/quote]
