Dcm said dcg (most difficult child) wouldn't be coming today...guess who shows up this morning. Picks her up early to go to her physical therapy and says she won't be bringing her back. Guess who just messaged me and said she's bringing her back. Ugh, never fails. |

When I say your child needs to be here PRIOR to snack time in order to have snack, that means they need to be here BEFORE snack time. Not right at snack time when the plates are fixed and kids are sitting down eating, but BEFORE. Then I'M the one that gets the dirty look when I have to tell dcp that they've missed snack. Grr. I'm in a mood today :/ |

I've got a dcm of the first kid i started watching and she likes to take credit for my daycare. Dcm: "I can't believe that you've been caring for dck for X amount of years. I mean, he's kinda the reason you started this." Yeah, not because of money or paying bills, but because of YOU and YOUR kid *insert eye-roll* |

During recess, ds2.5 got mad at dd8 for using the wagon. Ds sat down in the snow behind a car bed and cried. DCB3.5 was pushing a tractor and nowhere near DS. I decided to shovel the porch off. All of a sudden, I look up, DS and DCB are wrestling and not in fun. I rush over, separate them, and try to get out of DCB what happens. DCB only stands there crying for his mom, like always. I have no idea what happened but I do know that dcb went over to ds who was crying. DCM arrived and DCB announces proudly that he wrestled and I explain what I know. Later DD blurts out, I know what happened. She goes on to say DCB rammed DS with the tractor. I asked a few questions and she says she did not see it but feels that it is the only thing that makes sense since DCB went over to DS. She has also noted to me that she finds dcb to be an instigator or tends to poke the bear until something happens. Truthfully, I believe her theory, DCB has done similar things before, so I would not put it past him at all. There is a term in his future, just needs to get rid of the nagging feeling that it is not quite the right time. |

Can I just stop and say I hate online school. Our province offered either online or in person. We chosse in person. It has been nerve racking a bit with the thought of extra exposure at school, in regards to having to shut down daycare. This week though all students have had to switch for this week (so far) to virtual. Now I feel like I'm spun out between surpivising DKs kids and then online learning for my two guys grade 2 and sr. Kindergarten. They ate both skipping gym today as they have it back to back both during nap. Please let them go back. |

Just had to term my first parent ever. The baby was no problem whatsoever - so it sucks in that regard - but the parent was weird and I could tell things were going to just continue going downhill ... at least for me; she gave me the impression she lives in her own little world. I was just so uncomfortable and it was messing with my anxiety. These are not the type of interactions any provider wants or looks forward to. I feel so much better now. It's a weight off my shoulders. Will be updating quite a few things in my parent handbook though. |

I agree. I’m much more into mask wearing now that I had a direct exposure to COVID two weeks ago. I’ve always been good about wearing it in public places but not so good about wearing it at work. It’s hard at times but I want to be safe and to keep others safe. My vent for the day. Parents please send your kids to school with a warm coat. This is winter and unless the weather is frigid/raining/snowing/icy we are going to play outside for a short time anyway. The kids need fresh air even if it is a little chilly. A little hoodie just doesn’t cut it when it’s 36 degrees outside. |

Argh! Dcd picked up dcg yesterday, wearing a mask. Which is unusual. One of the other dck asked why he was wearing one. He said because he was around someone positive and is waiting for his test results ![]() ![]() This is the first I've heard about it! Why was your child here all week and why are you in my house??? I can't believe people sometimes. I just want to close until all this is over because people are selfish and untrustworthy and don't think about how their actions affect others. |

It’s been over a week since I was around them and I have no symptoms yet. But this has really scared me into always wearing a mask when I’m in contact with others. I’ve been quarantined for the last few days and I guess I have a few more before all is clear. It’s hard not being able to work and I miss my class so much. | |

Logged out for privacy. This one dcm is driving me crazy lately. First, she comes in before nap to pick-up dcg. The lights are off, the kids are laying down (although, not sleeping yet), and she has her phone on speaker. Like, she doesn't think anything of her phone being on speaker as loud as it can go as a busy tone plays as the kids are down for nap. Then, another dck is playing with these little blocks I've got, and this same dcm informs me that dcg accidentally took some home last week and she will need to bring them back. Was she ever going to bring them back? She didn't say a word until she saw a dck playing with them and she's had them since last week. I'm not expecting them back. Guess I'm gonna have to check all dcg pockets and clothing before leaving. Ugh, I'm ready for a break. |

Dcm: "I'm sure it's on the newsletter that I never read, but what days are you closed this week?" "Also, is there anything else I need to know about that would be on the newsletter?" Gee, I don't know. How about you actually READ IT. This is the same dcm who had no clue about a closure last month and found out about it when I told her I would see her Monday at Thursday pick-up. She was so flustered and had no clue what she was going to do the next day. I explained to her at that point that my closures are always on the newsletters. I was caught off guard and didn't know what to say to her comments this morning. Blows my mind that she still continues to ignore the newsletters ![]() |

I’m basing my info off what the CDC says. I’m sure the info varies in all areas depending on the number of cases but they say; “The US Center for Disease Control (CDC) has released an update to their research on the fatality rate associated with COVID-19. The CDC first posted this data on May 20, 2020, with the understanding that the parameter values would be updated and augmented over time. This update, dated September 10th, is based on data received by CDC through August 8, 2020. CDC COVID-19 Survival Rates Age 0-19 — 99.997% Age 20-49 — 99.98% Age 50-69 — 99.5% Age 70+ — 94.6%“ |

11-19-2020 12:34 PM | ||
VictoryCare | Tell your 99% survival rate to the more than a quarter of a million people who have died, if that is BS to you, than you definitely need a reality check | |
11-19-2020 12:29 PM | ||
VictoryCare | Its only a 99% survival rate if there is not a surge in the infections rates and an influx of those infections in the hospitals, when that happens there is not enough staff to take care of the influx, therefore the mortality rate goes up, and you better believe it, its happening right now all over the world, open your eyes, turn on the news, get your head out of the sand, smh | |

![]() And then like 25% of our DCPs act like COVID is making their life so much more stressful while they're working from home and updating their facebook profile and cover pictures at like 10am, like, you could totally keep your kids at home with you. ![]() Back in March when we closed services for any family who wasn't essential workers, and any family who was working from home (we had a new rule put on our ratios so we had to make it work, and we were getting a bi-weekly grant so parents only had to pay $50 per month per child to hold their spots) we had a fam who's kids are AWFUL and I'm just waiting for the right moment to term them, but we aren't getting many new enrollments right now so I'm just dealing with it-- but anyway, this family, both parents working from home, threw a FIT and typed up an essential worker letter "from their job" clearly not legit. Most of our clients work at the same hospital as nurses and or healthcare managers and I had seen many letters so I know. No letterhead, nothing, no signature. I let it slide because at that point we could keep them in care with all of the other fans keeping their kids home. But omg I cant wait for the day that I can term these kids. Anyway, like I've told everyone before, we do have a really small center, 30 kids max and that includes our after school/distance learner kids. We currently have 6 preschoolers, 6 toddlers, 4 infants, and 5 distance learners who are here M-W and 1 distance learner who is here M-F (the kid who is currently having issues that I just posted about) and 1 school-ager who lives out of state technically in MN in our sister city (we're right on the border so he's doing school full time until December and then full distance learning all of December under state rules I believe). So 23 kids. Small center. My mother owns the place, we've been open for 15 years, almost 16 years since I was 10. My mom just owns the place, I pretty much run it now. I'm ranting. Ugh. My mind is racing. I really hope this kid is ok. Thanks for the ![]() ![]() |

Dcm texted me 20 minutes before closing last night that she is running late and is trying to hurry. She's never late, so I didn't think much of it. She shows up 10 minutes AFTER closing. She was very apologetic, but here's the thing. Maybe instead of texting me that she is running late, she should've called her husband and told him to come pick up their kids. Or maybe she should've came and got her kids and then went back to her office to finish up work. And then she was non-stop going on about WHY she was late. As if I care. I don't understand some people. When a parent knows daycare closes at 5:30 and pick-ups must be done PRIOR to closing, why do they just not care and think they can be late? She didn't even bother asking if it was okay. Her problem became my problem. I seriously am curious as to what makes people act this way - especially to the person that cares for their children. I feel like home daycares aren't treated like a business. She would never show up to the grocery store after closing time...because they are CLOSED. Sorry for the rant, but late pick-ups are a huge pet peeve of mine. |

My full time kindergartener distance learner has asthma. Its something that he has always dealt with. He was totally fine yesterday. Got a text from his mom last night at 12:15 letting me know that before bed he said he had a sore throat... and at 11:45 woke up and could barely breathe. We are hoping is is just the asthma. I'm scared for this 5 year old little boy. He's never had a rapid flare up like this. He had 4 nebulizer treatments between 11:45pm and 6am. We have had him since he was an infant. I've become extremely bonded with him through his first year of actual school considering that I am his distance teacher. This feels like a bad dream. I'm trying not to bug his mom now, but we will see how he is doing soon and I will update. His mom works in the COVID unit, unfortunately. But had never had a breach in PPE and goes home and changes and showers before pickup every day. She is one of our sweetest DCPs we have ever had. I hope he is okay. They are taking him to get tested today and if his breathing doesn't get better, may be bringing him in to be monitored. We have 4 families out total awaiting test results. It really bothers me that licensing says we aren't allowed to close down or make any announcements about people awaiting test results until we receive a positive result. I'm scared. North Dakota just recorded the highest mortality rate in the world. This is scary. Wear your masks. Don't have large Thanksgiving gatherings. And for f*** sake, stop bringing the current/future president up right now. Doesn't even matter. |

Meanwhile, In Georgia: ‘The kids will be alright’: New study shows kids in day care centers don’t spread COVID-19 to adults No, I am not kidding. It is being pushed by licensing, too. ![]() https://www.wsbtv.com/news/local/atl...6Nr7BhZFvKEm_Y |

I have a DC family this morning that is keeping their family home and having one of two of their DCK's tested because they developed a bit of a clear runny nose. Child is 15 months. No other symptoms or reason to suspect COVID but they have access to rapid testing and simply want to make sure. Another family...and DCM is arguing with me about her child having to stay home for 14 days due to direct contact. DCM's work is telling her she has to return to work after 7 days because they are short staffed. DCM seems to think because work is okay with it, I should be as well. It's one extreme or another and I know it's only going to get worse as cold/flu season gets into full swing. Add in the holidays and family gatherings and it's going to be a long tough winter. I've sent home numerous letters telling parents I MUST follow state depart of health rules and I will NOT make exceptions for anyone so don't even ask. Of course, 75% if them ask anyways. I want/need the week vacation at Christmas more than ever this year but I am terrified to take it off as I suspect most families will find whomever and where ever to take their kids in when I am closed because they certainly aren't going to spend the week with their kids. Ugh! It's a no win situation no matter how you play it. ![]() |

Every November, week before Thanksgiving: Client: What days are you open next week? Me: Monday and Tuesday Client: How much do I owe you for next week? Me: Same weekly payment as always. It is tuition-based. Not hourly. This time, from a client who signed the contract a month ago. I have three rates. Hourly, Daily and Weekly. The client gets to pick the one that works best for them when they enroll. Then the one week a year I get to benefit from it, they want to renegotiate. It’s infuriating! |

![]() There was an article written by an ICU nurse, saying how even on some people's death beds, they were still denying they had Covid, even after testing positive for it. They were still claiming it had to be pneumonia or even lung cancer. They'd say 'this can't be happening, it isn't real'. And then you've got all the ones who regret their actions and not taking it seriously enough while gasping for breath. ![]() https://thehill.com/homenews/state-w...t-covid-19-not |

Meadow | I found out that dcm1 admitted to dcm2 that she knowingly sent her dcg today after dcg had first-hand exposure to someone who had tested positive for COVID. Some parents are just unbelievable. | |

I watched our 'virtual school board meeting' last night. I am impressed by them. Parents were chiming in about sports not being able to be played if the school went total remote (they are hybrid right now) and of course, with all remote there is no sports. Anyway, the leaders told the parents "it's up to you all as parents" to do your part to keep the spread down....that the mayor had issued a 30-day challenge of mask wearing to get the numbers down so since that isn't happening, YOU the parents will reap the consequences if the schools have to go all remote. Very interesting meeting. I wanted to chime in and say "for all of you that said covid was fake and would be gone after the election; this is what you got". ![]() |
