    I have no problem with parents asking me if I do certain things. I *DO* babywear. I love my wraps, slings and pouches. My babies love them too. Obviously I cannot feasably wear 5 babies at once but I do often wear at least one...we trade off who gets to be worn. It doesn't mean I always have a baby strapped to me...just that if we're walking down the street to the park, I will put one of the 11month olds on my back for the trip and the other two toddlers into the stroller.

    I also cloth diaper my own. I have never met a cloth diapering parent who didn't expect to get their poopy diapers back at the end of the day. IME, it's easier to cloth diaper a DCK because their poopy dipes aren't taking up precious space in my limited garbage bags.

    I think there is NOTHING wrong with asking IF a provider will accomodate for things like cloth dipes. If they don't, no biggie, move on. It's just like if organic food were important...you'd ask, and move on to find a daycare that does too. Or if a fully structured day were important....or if an educational program were important. Or if the daycare drives with the kids. Ect., ect. No harm in asking. But, in the end, it is up to the provider to decide what she's comfortable with, and you certainly can't make demands.
