Almost 2-yr-old still on baby food!

Your daycare - your rules.
I give a handout of tips which I actually got from thread on here and used it as a guide and modified it. I give it to all my potential parents and I also go over it during the interview. Children MUST be self feeding (or attempting to at the very least), on table foods and able to drink from a cup/hold their own bottles.
There is NO WAY I can feed 4-5 children every single day.
I am very stubborn too and have had children still arrive with parents sending them baby food. I send it back at the end of each day.
The kids all eat what I serve or they don't eat - period. Yes, I am harsh! LOL! I do make sure that its something that each one of them will eat a portion of at least every day so I know that they all are eating.
I had one start at 11 months with me in October, think I wrote a post about him awhile ago. Parents sent baby cereal and a jar of not toddler chunky food, pureed 6 month old baby food plus 4 or 5 8oz bottles. I gave it a day or two and realized I couldn't work with that. After a few weeks of battling it out the little guy has turned out to be one of my best eaters! I would just put the food on his plate and tell him to eat like a big boy and wow look at xxx eating their xxx like a big boy/girl and point out the other kiddos who were eating well. I also cut his bottle amount so that he would be hungry enough to eat. He is now off bottles and he drinks his 2 cups of milk a day from a CUP and he feeds himself with a fork or spoon. His parents were willing to work with me though and I think that makes a huge difference.
If the parents aren't willing to work with you then you may have to think about terming.
Good luck!
