    I'm really lucky that I can travel to our downtown library where I meet 2 other caregivers with our daycares every Monday, then I travel with my group once or twice a week to meet other caregivers at parks or playgroups. I love it! Lots of variety for the children and some adult interaction for me. It IS important.

    We also have two parks close to my home so we can go there and I always talk with the other Moms, then they start asking about my daycare and advice on how I make the children behave so well, ha!

    But I am rarely bored. I plan something different every day including one day of theme of the week lessons/crafts/learning and I love being self-employed and working at home. Now, mind you I spent all my life working for other people and being a # in large companies where nobody cared about anybody else so that's the reason I love being my own boss now and working at home.

    I'm the opposite of Judy in this case! I usually agree with her 100%.

    Judy- I gotta say I agree with you on a lot of fronts. I do find that there is a lot of "down time" where I am supervising and while I do look for those teachable moments I do think tht the children do need to play together as a part of a healthy development.



    I do agree that there are tons of perks to working the job that I do but I just miss having adult interaction!
