Wow! I dont understand how the provider can AFFORD to go shopping in the first place, unless she does daycare because she just has nothing better to do with her time and does not necessarily need the money. If your daughter is the only child in the daycare, and if as a provider myself I know that 1/2 of what I charge weekly goes right back into the daycare, I just dont see where the shopping funds are coming from. I do take kids out occassionally, but as a provider, I would not want to take the risk of having something happen to the kids if it is not absolutely necessary to take them out. I do have it in my contract that I do need to transport from time to time, but I see your point. Why risk it if you dont have to?
