    I also should add that my own child tends to be my most challenging on average...so, it would be a nice break....wow, did I just say that out loud
    Children are great imitators.
    So give them something great to imitate.

    wow... It's nice to hear someone else say this. I honestly thought it was just my kiddo. He's awesome for other caregivers but at home somedays he pushes all my buttons.

    Ladies I know dozens and dozens of providers who would share the same thing - thier own children were the most challenging ... children behave differently for thier own parents for various reasons from comfort to "try" strategies they would not try with someone else - most of which are they know you love then unconditionally and so they can
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."

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.
