How would you handle this?

I never used a monitor for my kids and I don't on the weekends and I find nap time so much more relaxing for me.

I did get a video monitor though because I found I would worry when I heard a noise that they were getting into something and this disrupted my break more then anything. I have a bunch of kids on cots so they are free to use the bathroom etc. I found the monitors great for training them to stay on their cots etc. The other bonus is I have my daycare self contained in the basement and I have been able to let my 3 yo sleep longer as I can just call up on the monitor to her to come down. Also, when she has been sick I have left her to watch a movie by herself and I can keep an eye on her as I can't hear a thing with the door closed.
