    I provide the wipes too but always treated sunscreen the same as diaper creams. Each child has a bin with their changepad in it and whatever brand of diaper cream parent wants in it and we have a bin at the door with all the sunscreens in it. I don't find it takes much more time to switch bottles since I put it down to rub in anyways and then just pick up a different bottle when I move to the next child.

    Would be interested to know what brand you are most happy with Judy. I do not allow the sprays that get everywhere since we are doing the lotion as a group at the door. Even the other sprays I usually do it into my hand and than smother it on the child rather than spray on the child and rub in. For myself and my own kids I have Ombrella spf45 or 60 when I can find it cream lotion and that is the only one my red headed kids don't burn right through.

    I use Green Beaver on my own kids It's more expensive, but natural...worth the price. I think I would have loved to send my kids to your daycare

    Ah, thanks. It really IS nice to hear someone say that. Because, my online presence makes me look like a hard ass. But I really DO do everything in the best interest of the kids.

    One thing you will notice about my posts is that I RARELY ever complain about the KIDS. It is always about the parents. I think every kid deserves the very best at daycare.
