    My policy is that everyone must have quiet time and lay down. If they are not asleep after 30 minutes I might let an older child get up and then they can watch cartoons until quiet time is over. I have two almost 4 year olds, when they started with me in the spring both parents asked for no nap or a very short nap but at the same time agreed to my quiet time policy. Both of them still fall asleep within 10 minutes everyday and any issues with getting them to sleep at night were resolved long ago. I leave them for atleast an hour and any issues sleeping at home were resolved by their parents and as far as I know they are no longer an issue. There is no way that I would keep kids awake when they really should be having a nap.

    So my answer is, they all go for quiet time and if they fall asleep then they obviously need it. I am not going to deny them something they need and deal with grumpy kids just so they will go to bed early when they get home.

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
