Daycare and pets

[Samantha33]

I have three dogs. My husband has a service dog (Lab), I have a Goldendoodle, and my son who is still at home has a Basset Hound. My parents don't mind the dogs. They know the quality of care I provide is wonderful and put that above dogs in the house. They are mostly separated. We are downstairs and the dogs are upstairs so it's not a huge issue. For someone who has no dog though it would probably seem intimidating. I've been lucky so far. I think it also depends on the parent and child. Allergies are bigger now than 20 years ago so I imagine it does limit a person somewhat when they have animals.

I have an aquarium. Honestly, ALL of the children LOVE it! Every day they go up to it and look at the fish swimming around! Starting from infants to toddlers, preschool and up! Safe for the children to be around and not a lot of work!

I think I'll go that way.
