When I started my daycare my two youngest were home during the day. My daycare is in the basement. The daycare kids slept in play pens in various rooms in my house ... I did have one that slept on a cot in the play room one in my bedroom one in my older sons room that was school all day and one in the bedroom in the basement .... My children slept in their own rooms. All children napped at the same time including my children. Anyone in the daycare (the basement)must abide by the daycare rules, however if my children wanted to go upstairs and play with their own toys or read their own book sect they were allowed as long as they behaved and didn't get into things. This is their home and they are not in daycare
