It never fails to amaze me in the 3 years that I've been doing this the behaviour of various parents I've had over the years.
I've started a new family a month ago. Well educated and both parents in very good positions. Since day one they have been bringing in 2 to 3 diapers a day for their 2 yr old child. It is stated in my contract and after repeatedly writing down on their daily reports "Need more diapers" they still only allot 2/3 diapers a day. They've told me from day 1 "We only change her twice a day " Today at drop off I spoke to dcd. Told him I need a minimum of 4 diapers a day. This also elevates the need to remind parents 2 or 3 times a week that I need diapers. Told him that all my daycare families leave a package of diapers here. His response "Well, we don't change pee diapers" What?! Well, sorry here at daycare I don't leave a child in a "Pee" diaper. Especially girls. Told him I have scheduled changes and of course, if there is an immediate need for a diaper change.
So he reluctantly handed over exactly 20 diapers for 1 week ( 4 per day). He was not happy. What's wrong with people? Seriously dcd it's not like I'm using them for any other reason then to diaper your child's tushie
