    Some parents boggle my mind

    I had a parent walk in this morning and tell me they started toilet training this morning!!!!! A Tuesday Morning???? Not the beginning of the long weekend but this morning .....so I begin to ask all the questions I already know the answers to....
    Me : Does he know when he has to go ?
    Parent: Umm no not really .
    Me: Ok so does he like to sit on the potty or toilet ?
    Parent: Oh no not really he just cries but try to give him a car that might work !
    Me: Does he show an interest at all?
    Parent: not really
    Me: he has a diaper on right?
    Parent: oh yes just take it off to put him on the potty several times a day
    Me : righto


    Seriously????? he is no where ready to start toilet training and here is not the place to start... He's a few weeks shy of 2.5 yrs but at the maturity level of about an 18 month old and he only says about 15 words. I guess she thinks I am going to do it for her and that's why she started today and not on sat.

    I will have to have a little chat at pick up and say nope not ready try in the sumner when you have him home for two weeks.

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
