Pick up / drop offs

[Momof4]

There is a Dad in my daycare who always drops off his son in his suit and comes back to pick him up in casual clothes and I know he's been home. I don't know how long he's been home but, YES it BOTHERS me! Why on earth can't he pick up his son first and then go home. However, they are only using an 8 hour day so I can't complain or say a word about it.

Yes...this annoys me to no end. I KNOW parents pay us regardless if they are working or getting a pedicure or worse NAPPING! I get it. However, I too have caught parents grocery shopping or getting a pedicure if they finish work early (I know this cause the plaza behind my house has a grocery store/spa etc....my backyard faces the plaza. Often we are playing in the yard and I can SEE the parents loading groceries or one mum in particular coming out of the spa).

I have one mom who has been on extended leave from work (they are going thru structural changes) for two months...yet she drops her kids off every single day from 8:00-5:30 Poor babies. I mean come on...one day of the month you can't stay home and play with your kids...why do some people bother having kids??? Often she'll ring my door bell out of breath and gives me a weak "sorry, I was at the pool swimming and lost track of time....or she'll drop them off with her friend in tow all dolled up to go where at 8:00am??? Or she will mention how she soooo needs a nap when she gets home cause the kids kept her up the night before

When I was working outside the home when my son was little, I could not wait to get to his daycare and pick him up if I was early getting off work.

Her loss. Either way I get paid to watch her beautiful childrenf. She's missing out. Guess she wants to squeeze every last dime out of her daycare fees.
