I've had kids that I was actually happy to see leave and some that broke my heart. I just closed my daycare and reopened in my new home about 20mins away from where I was so many of the kids were...

I use pictures of my kids playing in my daycare space. I have signed permission to take and share photos but in this case I asked each parent permission and explained WHERE I would be posting it and...

Was he away from you during the holidays? I took the week off and my kids are grumpy, tired, out of sorts and basically just hell on wheels. They had no routine (or boundaries) and we are all paying...

I have one in the same boat Emily, the older brother has a military haircut and my little friend has hair hanging in his face and he's 3. I don't get the fascination. I told mom the other parents...
