Mid Week Laugh :)

[michellesmunchkins]

Here is what I just read as a parents wanted ad for daycare:

Current daycare request (for those who need a laugh!)
Parents requests: 16 month old child must not self feed. Provider must feed child all meals (she doesn't like him to get food on his hands, face or in his hair)
Very limited to no outside play. Parent does not want child to touch dirt, grass or anything other than the stroller (child could catch something from the dirt and grass)
Absolutely no time at a park (too many strangers and toxins at a park and parks are just not safe for her child)
No messy food at all (this includes bananas, strawberries, potatoes or anything else that could potentially get on his body or clothes)
No other adults allowed at provider's home while child is there (this includes providers family members, neighbours are not allowed to talk to provider or children if they see them outside)
Child is to have no contact with any animals (including providers) as animals are dirty nasty creatures (this is parents own words, not mine)
Child is to be picked up the second he cries. Parent does not care what you are doing or if another child needs you her child is to come first regardless of situation
There's more but that about covers how insane this woman really is LOL

That almost sounds like a joke ..... Really? why have a child? why not just buy a doll you can place on a shelf and look at now and again

[michellesmunchkins]

No joke, I know the woman who posted it, she is nuts!

[Dreamalittledream]

Speechless! Just wow!

[Other Mummy]

Yeah. Good luck with that. Excuse me while I laugh my ass off :laugh::laugh::laugh ::laugh::laugh:

BTW....I don't think the new Royal baby is even going to get that "special care".

All kidding aside, if this woman is real, I feel so, so sorry for her child. That kid is going to need therapy in 15+ yrs.

Was this on kijiji ?

[michellesmunchkins]

Not on kijiji, on facebook. It was posted as her status for her 'friends' to help her find appropriate daycare. Not sure if this makes her sound worse or better but she is a nurse so I can understand some of her worry about getting sick etc, but she is setting her child up to live in a bubble and have no socialization at all. Any provider who takes on this child has their work cut out for them, can you imagine if the child got a scratch or bruise while in care how she would react?

[mimi]

this mom would probably monitor through phone calls and emails or worse video link. OMG just the thought of her makes all my clients look like angels.

[michellesmunchkins]

Oh she added a second part: child is scared of loud noises. Under no circumstances will you ever turn on a vacuum or blender or anything else that can make a loud noise.
You will not visit any playgroups or have playdates as I don't know all the people/children who may attend
Child is not allowed to be transported in your vehicle and I must approve of your stroller before he is allowed to ride in it
I need to meet all other children and parents in your care and must be kept updated of any changes.
You must inform me of any children/parents/adults who have been ill that come in contact with my child

[Smitty]

she needs to stay home and raise her kid herself!

[Skysue]

That poor little child Omg to think of the life he is being brought up into. That is abuse he is put in a bubble but doesn't need to be. I feel so sad for him.

[Other Mummy]

michellesmunchkins, could you not respond back to her facebook request with something along the lines of "You are not looking for a daycare provider...you are looking for a nanny" What a piece of work....at least it makes ALL our clients look like the perfect clients!!

[apples and bananas]

She needs to find a provider that has a bubble they can just pop him into when he arrives. Feed through a straw (so he doesn't get dirty of course) and release when mom comes to pick up.

:laugh::laugh::laugh : Thanks for the morning laugh Michelle! Run, do not walk from that ad!

[Crayola kiddies]

A nurse !!! Well the solution is easy then .... She should take him to work with her and put him in an isolation tent for the day and he'll stay nice and sterile .... And when he goes to school he'll be the sickest kid there cause it will be his first exposure to germs

[mlle.coccinelle]

ahahah wow! that's kinda sad!

[2cuteboys]

I feel like in general, nurses know the whole germ exposure/immunity relationship, I don't think we can attribute her education to her INSANE requests lol.

This woman just sounds crazy to me! Her poor kid!

[Mondaygirl]

She sounds mostly scared to me. Imagine seeing the world as such a dangerous place for your child to grow up. Sad for everyone, I think. :(
