    I am very hesitant about having her, and her sister back tomorrow, as I know she didn't start any meds until last evening, and I'm pretty sure it was a liquid steroid dose.
    It took me basically arguing with them over text, ( since that's the only way to communicate due to their hearing impairment) yesterday to have her seen by a dr. Since they can't hear how bad her breathing was.
    They asked me to take the younger sister today, but i refused, there's another issue, siblings! Chances are I will be in the same position with her.
    Deep down, my gut is telling me this dcg won't be healthy enough to be here, but parents will dose with Tylenol and bring them both.
    Am I wrong for wanting to text them asking them to not return until Friday, or even Monday, giving dcg time to get better, and watch for signs from the sibling?
    Some parents don't understand what it's like spending a night in the ER with a small child that can't breath!

    I encourage you to tell them that and stand up for that. Maybe they don't know, perhaps they have been blessed up with never having had medical emergencies.

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.
