    Disgusting!!!!!!!!!

    OMG!!! So angry about this. I have 2 girls in care. One 2.5 years old and one just turned 2. Both decided to strip down completely naked during naptime, including their diapers...they both decided to poop and pee in my playpens. Not only do I now have to find time to bath them while taking care of the other 3 in care, but will have to spend god only knows how long tonight cleaning and disinfecting my playpens. So disgusted. They are both old enough to know better!! The one child was in a pull up as parents think she is trained even though she refuses to use the potty here. Other child was in a diaper.

    Any advice....grrrrrrrrr

    Oh - have not had to deal with this stage since moving to home program!

    Are they in the SAME room or was it just coincidence that they both did this?

    I know in centre care what we did was put children who did this into a 'backwards onsie' ... aka a sleeper that zipped up and put the zipper in the BACK so they could not access it to get undressed and we turned up the monitor to keep an ear out for 'movement'.

Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."

    Oh....poor you! Not a pleasant thing to find near the end of the day! Sorry, I have no advice, just sympathy!!!! I will mention that my own just turned 2 daughter is obsessed with taking her clothes off....because she just learned that she can!!! Luckily she does not do it in her bed and never takes off her diaper! I think this is fairly common. I would just go with a big body wipe down and leave parents to do proper bath. I have plastic sheets under my pack and play sheets just in case.

    Reggio, different rooms. I use playpens in my bedrooms so nobody has to share a room! I've never had this happen in 5 years of doing daycare. A backwards onsie is a great idea, if the parents will agree to it!

    Oh that is awful. No good advice other than I feel so sorry for you !!!


    I have had kids poop their pants and felt like tenting my house and spraying the tent with Lysol and bleach just for that. It adds so much extra work and stress to your day.

    Oh wow what are the statistically chances of BOTH choosing the same day to do that - yuck for sure! I was thinking they had 'played' off each other to have both done that and was going to suggest separate rooms but that wont work!

    My thoughts exactly. I can't believe it. I wiped them both down, but the parents will have to bath them. I would love to lysol, but have one little one who reacts to anything sprayed so I have to wait until 6 when everyone goes home...then out comes the lysol and febreeze. My house smells like a monkey's cage at the zoo!!!! Gross! I think I may have to change the fact that we use our bedrooms for nap times...

    eww... I had a 3.5 yo who was potty trained poop her pants while sleeping on my bed. My daughter had gone up to tell her that quite time was over so I didnt notice until she was sitting up at the table waiting for snack, sucking her thumb. I noticed the hand she had up to her mouth sucking her thumb looked like it had chocolate on it, and we hadnt had any chocolate (gagging here just remembering) realized what must have happened!!! After getting her all cleaned up I went up to check my bed and I guess she had slid down off the bed and smeared it ALL over my bedspread... sooooo not impressed....
