I wanna quit!! :(

[Daycare Momma]

I can completely understand how you feel as well. Been there many times. I also keep the board books down low and the good books up on a high shelf. I love being able to be here for my own kids and it's a great opportunity to be able to do that and earn a decent income at the same time. But I really miss my home just being my home. I'm a pretty private person and I really hate having people in my home when they're not close friends or family but that's par for the course. I recently had a parent come by early for pick up. We were not even here as we were out for a walk and my hubby was working in the garage. This parent walked right in my house went through to the back apparently thinking we were playing in the backyard. She scared hubby as he didn't even know she was here and she didn't even knock or anything. I hate when they think they can just walk in. First and foremost this is our HOME.

Oh my gosh, Daycare Momma, I would not be happy if one of my daycare parents just walked through my house without even knocking! Their kids may be with me, but it is still my home and my husband and teenage son would not appreciate having some parent just walk in on their own!
That is a rule that I would not be lenient about. I have been a daycare parent as well and would never of just walked in without knocking!
