    I don't know what happens to my brain at pickup time but it goes blank.

    I guess it is that I am just exhausted by the end of the day and I have already written everything I had to say on teh daily report. Then at the end of the day the parents ask if Little Suzy had a good day and my mind is just like "yup" and I can't think of anything interesting to say on the spot. lol

    It can sometimes be a little awkward because I feel under pressure to say something while they dress their little one but my brain isn't cooperating. lol

    That happens to me sometimes too! I am tired and distracted as parents come and go and I forget to tell them something important or I just simply go blank and can't even remember for the moment anything about that particular child's day LOL. That's why I use email a lot to communicate all those forgotten little tidbits

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.
