Quick Childcare Update

Hi ladies!

 I thought I would send you a quick update regarding my massive childcare search!

 Yesterday was Brynne's first day at her new babysitters. Her new sitter is a new SAHM on leave from teaching. She has all of her teeth and has a 2.5 y/o and a baby that is almost exactly Brynne's age. Yesterday went sooooo well! I was so excited. When I came up pick Brynne up at the end of the day, she smiled when she saw me and went right back to playing! She could have cared less that I was there! I feel so wonderful that she was happy!

Unfortunately the family is planning on moving at the end of summer, so she will only be cared for until I am out of school in June. I'm still looking for daycare's for next year, but am so happy that we found a great place for her in the meantime!

Thanks for all your thoughts in the meantime!

  • That sounds wonderful.  After everything you've been through with this search, I'm glad to hear that you found a great place for her even if it is only temporary.  Good luck to you with finding another great new place for her to start in the fall.

  • I was wondering how this was going.  I'm glad that you found this lady but what a bummer that she's moving!  I hope you find a great place for her in the Fall.  Are you still thinking about a center or in-home?

    Ethan seems to finally be adjusted to his new room.  He is playing every time I arrive to pick him up.  I still have concerns about the amount of kids in the room and he was accidentally given pretzels last week (they are not sure if he ate any.  I spoke with the director about it).  I imagine this is going to become even scarier as he grows and sits at the toddler table with other children vs. a high chair.  I have thought about visiting some of the centers we talked about to see if they're smaller class sizes but I'm so torn.  He's finally adjusted.  I'd hate to go through that again so soon.

    Hope you are all well.  Let's gtg soon!

  • Sounds like you have a nice set up!  That stinks that she is moving!  : (  I hope you can be successful again finding a new one in Fall. 
  • I'm glad you found someone great, even if just for a little while.  Finding good childcare is just so hard these days.  It's bittersweet, too, when you go to pick them up and they smile or give a quick hug, and then run back to playing.  It's like, "Nice to see ya, mom, but I'm busy right now!" 
  • I'm glad you were able to find someone, even if it is only temporary...at least there is hope that you'll be able to find someone just as great come Fall :) 
  • Glad you were able to find someone you love . . bummer she is moving though.  Good luck as you continue your search for the fall. :)
  • That's great you found someone.  I had to laugh at the "has all her teeth" part.  I'll send you a message on FB with the info for the dc that my friend works at, not sure if you checked into it or not.
