    I have felt the same way about missing co-workers. What I did was hire an assistant for a couple of hours a day. Her and I don't gab. She really does attend to the children with me, but just having her there makes all the difference for me. For my sanity, the cost to pay her is worth it. Then if you need her to tag team with you for the one not sleeping...it's an option. (that doesn't work if it keeps other children up though )

    I don't have enough children to hire an assistant - only will take 3 children max to keep ratios low. Luckily, hubby and I are not in it for the money. The one p/t and one f/t pay for our mortgage, and we're happy with that! I own a dance school too.

A few tips...

If you encounter a daycare provider with out-of-date openings / spaces, click on the button right above the currently listed openings to report it!
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
