Parents making themselves at home

[zen39]

I don't think parents need to have access to bedrooms regardless if their child naps there.

This isn't a daycare center (as playfelt stated), this is a private home that provides childcare and rules are different. And yes these bedrooms can be thought of as private even if their child uses them for a 2 hour nap.

I use all 4 of my bedrooms and parents like it that each child has their own room. I'm fortunate that all my parents respect the fact that this is still my home and that although their child is here, I'm entitled to boundaries. No parent is allowed to wander throughout my house. They can enter the mainfloor play area where children spend 80% of their time and that's it.

You are most definitely able to maintain privacy in your home while running a daycare, I've done it.

zen and playfelt has said it perfectly. We run a business out of our homes, but that doesn't mean that parents are allowed anywhere!

My parents know that they are only allowed at the door (front hallway), unless I ask them to come in. They respect me, my home and my business.
