    Agreed enough is enough and time to take back control. I would gather all the underwear up and put them in a basket and up out of her reach - she has to earn the privilege of getting them back. That means going a full week - Mon to Fri with a pullup on and treating it like underwear. If she does then she gets to wear underwear on the weekend (the idea here is less mess during the daycare week and only you and her on the weekend). After a month of underwear weekend success she gets to go day by day with underwear during daycare so if she is successful on Monday she gets underwear on Tuesday but since there is only one pair per day first pee on Monday and she goes back into a pullup. OF course when we are in "baby diapers" there are certain "big girl" priveleges we don't get. There has to be a reason to act big.

    Once the guidelines are in place it also takes the power struggle away from both of you since there is no negotiating, nothing but the rules and she has the power to control the outcome.

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.
