Venting and advice needed.

[Daycarefriend]

Hi Ladies,

I'm new to this forum stuff so forgive me if I am not in the proper thread. It seems like this is the only recent conversation?? Anyway, I was wondering what other daycare providers thoughts are on allowing parents to go into your house at pick up (while you are all outside) and use your bathroom. I personally do not like it, but I was wondering how others felt about it.

Love to hear your thoughts!

You should start own thread as your comment will likely get lost in this conversation.

I don't allow parents into my house if I am not there. If we are outside at pick up time, I bring out all their bags, coats, belongings and parents can pick up from outside. I also don't allow parents to use my washroom routinely. Sure, there been times a parent has asked but it's the exception not the rule - I would not allow if we were outside.

I tend to lock my house if we are outside and then we come out back door which is nearer my play area.
