Personally, I would tell the parents my weekly plans and let them know that is the way I run my daycare. If they don't like the way I run my daycare or trust me then they shouldn't bring their child to me.

I am one of the caregivers who takes the children out all the time and that is one of the things I mention in the pre-screening process. No use conducting an interview with someone who won't be a good match for my daycare.
