Hi, it has been very informative on how many of us operate.

Obviously we each have our very unique techniques and philosophies, all very well kept on our perks repertoire. And I keep learning "from each other", it calls my attention if there is a standard set of procedures or regulations to follow in childcare.

Here Ontario and I do not know if many follow or not, a child can not be kept more than 20 minutes crying, yelling in a cot or a play pan, etc at nap time. Other ways it is considered child abuse or negligence. Obviously, very hard to see and control in homedaycares but the parents are the ones who decide (that's the reason they slso have an open door policy and I do not think that has been changed).
