    Feel so stupid/ not daycare rant!

    My DD's friend just called our house at 8:48 am and woke up my household, she was calling to see if my DD wanted to play? I let my DD call back, her Mom answered saying her DD was outside, my DD said she just called me?end of conversation.

    Then 2 minutes later her friend knocked on the door inviting my DD outside. I said she will be along soon as she needs to finish her cereal. Within 15 minutes my DD was outside and on her way. I told her that her friend may have gone back in due to it being cold outside and if so then to come straight home as its too early to play inside. I told her they can have an inside playdate after lunch.

    My DD calls me from her friends house 5 minutes later saying they are only going to be inside for 1/2 an hour then back outside, I asked to talk to her friends Mom.

    I told her that this time is very early for my family and she can send her home, unless she 100% ok with her being there. She said they have been up since 7am and she has already cleaned done laundry and put it all away. I said "really" she said yes, I even been to Rona already to talk with my cabinet maker. I said really wow well if your ok then thanks.

    When I hung up it all sank in. I feel so stupid and insulted, why let your 5 year old call so early then.

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.
