Littlefeet, what if you put an ad on kijiji asking for other caregivers to contact you for playdates at a nearby park or library or other venue? It's so great for us to have adults to talk to, especially caregivers because they understand our problems and we can help each other, because it gets lonely when we work alone in our homes.

When my friend who lives up the street and I started having playdates, eventually we had other caregivers from all over the city driving to our park locations and sometimes we end up with 4-5 HDCP's and 20-25 kids. It's great. The children have all gotten to know each other over the years and last week we had a big graduation party at the park for the ones going off to school.
