It is a big selling feature for your daycare if you have a library, park or OEYC within WALKING distance but a lot of parents get nervous when they hear of a provider transporting their children in a vehicle.

I think over half of parents get very nervous at the idea of a provider taking their child in a car. I get that question a lot during interviews and most parents are relieved when I say that we don't drive anywhere.

We usually have a OEYC satellite available within walking distance and parents light up when they hear that we attend the stay n play or a program there. I think it is probably the idea of driving that parents are nervous about.
