Day Care Update

[judecorp]

hope_persists FTW! I just had a nice chat with a day care provider who comes with rave reviews and will be meeting her on Friday. Jen is also seeing a day care tomorrow that had a nice little blurb with the referral people (specifically said no TV).

GOOD.

Now see, I'm hip to a little TV. Our current day care provider (whom I LOVE) made it known right up front that sometimes the TV is on. It was in all of her paperwork. When I asked about it, she said, "Sometimes my kids like to watch TV when they're eating breakfast," and the fact that she was upfront and straightforward about it made it cool. If I popped in at a random time, I didn't expect TV zombies.

And I totally am known to use a little TV if I have to put Punk in the PnP and run into the basement. I know the uses of TV. And when she's older, I can totally see some TV to thwart an early waker, or something, or maybe to make lunch or cook dinner or whatever.

But if I am paying someone to provide child care, I would like them to care for my child sometimes. And 2+ hours of TV per day (not including the occasional rainy day video) is more than I care to pay for.
