So, I have one parent that drops off between 7:30 and 8:30, not a problem.
I have told the parents that if the dcg is NOT here by 8:15 (my clock) then She better have eaten a snack before coming. At 8:27am, they show up, with a chocolate Tim Bit in hand. The dcm asks if I would be ok for her to finish it in the daycare. NO. I told her that no outside food was aloud in the daycare, she could finish it out in the hall if she wanted too. The dcm just through it in the garbage. Now I have a screaming child. (no superise, she screams and crys most of the day anyway). As mom leaves she asks if I could have an early lunch as dcg has not had breakfast. I just calming informed her that lunch is served at 11:30am and that the other children will not be hungry until then. She did not seem happy as she left. I am not a restaurant I do not make lunch at different times for each child. I go by what the group wants, if they all want an early lunch then we will have one. If the parents would just drop off between 7:30 and 8:00am like every one else then their girl could have snack with the rest of the kids.
