The developing issue- COVID-19

[Peacefulbird]

Hi Ladies,
This situation is so unfortunate for all of us.

I can see this discussion and calls to my attention that many of you make statements, like this virus won't touch you! Neither your family or loved ones.

Maybe it's because you're a younger generation perhaps (20-40's)

If you read the news many people is getting laid off, being realistic. I'm sure the next thing to do is to start cutting many non basic services, and childcare is only considered basic whIle they have a job and not when they're at home without a job.

Yes, if you decide to still open go ahead.

I had to close because the risk in my groups of families were big. Plus if your "read", children can still be contagious without showing synthoms. That's how China, and currently Italy and EnglaND are in big trouble, this virus is hard to trace and act earlier to prevent it. My heart and my deep feelings go to you, that will be exposed in a daily basis (not knowing ), screen your families, crazy washing hands and disinfecting, and no socializing what so ever.

Call your insurance companies, protect yourselves and your families as much as you can.

At this point it's not matter of discussion to see who pays or who doesn't. We are all called to focus on working towards "FLATTENING THE CURB" and hopefully not ending up like China or Italy.

Unfortunately, Ontario cases still increasing. And if that keeps going they will definitely close everything.

Please, forsee the danger ahead, not just for you. Also for your family and your community.

If parents are working at home and need childcare. It's because, (if you're a parent and noticed), working from home while taking care children is impossible. In this situation they obviously need our support.

I have seen already, contract policies changing and covering the pandemic issue. A paper won't protect you. When there is such risks, adults constantly fail to protect children; the parents for placing kids in care and in groups when there is a warning, the caregivers opening knowing of such danger but finantial gain is the main goal for some people first.

If there aren't jobs (caused due to the spread and increase of this virus) many of us will face the situacion of closing indefinitely. And be sure that desesperate families will be asking their paid upfront deposits back, regardless you having a spot to keep or not.

I'm just hopping I'm wrong. But please take the necessary precautions.
