How much would you pay?

[Momof4]

Now please understand that I'm not judging you, but wouldn't it be better to find a way to get your little daughter to be a vital part of the daycare so that you can spend time with her every day and enjoy being her Mom? I understand that you don't feel that way right now, but isn't that part of the reason you have a daycare, so that you can be home with your own children? Can you get your school age son to be your assistant and give him some important jobs to do so he knows you value having him around?

Can you research back through threads on the forum where the caregivers have discussed this subject of getting their own children to behave in the daycare? It sounds like you need to find ways to streamline your days so you are not so stressed and exhausted. You're right, that's not good at all for you or your family. Don't push yourself so hard to be Superwoman! Give yourself a break and find ways to make your life less stressful. Filling up the crockpot at night and turning it on in the morning so your family dinner is ready on time, cutting back on crafting and just going outside all summer is ok, relax yourself while the children sleep at naptime, these are just a few ideas.
