Adventures in Daycare

Last night H and I went to look at a daycare place. There were a lot of things wrong with this place but I will just give you the best example.

This is a daycare in someones house. When we got there we went through the main door with the sign on it and there were three ways to go once you were inside. Right was the garage with the door open about 2 feet. Straight were some stairs with a door on top and to the left was another door. I went up the stairs to try that door and H peeked in the garage door. Turns out we were both wrong and it was the door on the left.

H didn't tell me this until we left but when he opened the door to the garage there was a bed in the middle of the garage with a naked woman sleeping on it. NAKED. In the garage. Door open. 5 feet from the entrance of a daycare.

All night H kept saying "I saw a naked woman tonight.  At a daycare."

I'm really glad we saw 2 great ones before this one or I'd be moving to a less expensive area so I could stay home for good.

  • HA! It's like when Jim walked in on the guy on the baby toilet at the daycare on the Office.

  • I think you should take Sparkletron 1 & 2 to the naked lady day care.  Think of all the wonderful things they'll learn!

  • was it StrawberryAlarmClock's mom?
  • I'm recalling a movie where the kids were taken to a naked school run by some peace&love type folks.  I'm guessing this was not a place like that. 

    I suppose nudists need daycare too!  :-)

  • Maybe naked lady was a wetnurse?

  • We decided that they were running a side business with the naked lady and that the kid's fathers volunteered to be in charge of pick up everyday.

  • Am I just cranky today or does it seem like that's a business that should maybe be reported to...someone? Was it a licensed day care?
    image Guess who?
  • I've been thinking about that, too. Yep, licensed.

  • lookit Fitty being all SeriousSally and wanting to call CPS on the daycare.

    That is just . . . very strange, BB.  Ask your H if the nekkid woman was in a sheet or what--just sprawled out on the mattress?  This is just so curious.

  • Just sprawled out on the mattress. There was also a very creepy woman (maybe a neighbor?) lurking around outside. She actually came out of the daycare's backyard play area when we pulled up and was just milling around the driveway. I don't know if she was part of the daycare or just a neighbor but she gave me the willies.

  • Were there actually children at the day care when you visited? Was this place recommended by someone or was it just in a location you like?

    And you're saying there was MORE wrong than what you have already described?

    image Guess who?
  • There was still one child, a one year old, at the daycare when we visited. Our appointment was at 6pm.

    Yeah, there was no structure, the place wasn't that clean, she really had nothing to tell us about what they do all day and the backyard play area was all concrete.

    It's just a place we found online that's in our town so we figured we'd check it out.

  • i would actually call the licensing agency too

    Ditto.  I haven't read one thing about that story that is ok in a daycare.  You could totally throw out the naked woman and the place would still be shut down for violations (concrete playgrounds, no visitor control, access to unsafe areas, no gates blocking stairs, etc., etc.)

  • Jumping on the call bandwagon. This place sounds super scary and some of the parents may not even be aware of some of this stuff going on.

  • I agree, if it raised red flags contact the state licensing office.

  • Who the heck would actually send their child to that place?  I concur - I'd call the licensing agency to report them.  I don't send Miles to a home based daycare, so I don't know what's considered acceptable, but all of this stuff seems way over the line.
    image Mabel the Loser.
  • You're right. If it was happening around my kids I would hope someone would call.

  • With all the stuff that's wrong with this story, i don't know why I'm so focused on the fact that this bed was in the garage.
