I think if she had just let me come down the first time, it wouldn’t have planted suspicions in my mind. Also, when I told a few friends that I didn’t go down there, they seemed alarmed, telling me that they were always welcome into their providers care area (in home as wel). So it made me wonder what was up with mine. Keep in mind I am a FTM and only have my friends to ask/ compare notes or my own feelings/ instincts to rely on
Makes sense...
Curious... Did you tour the program prior to enrolling? Did the provider show you at that time what areas your baby would spend time in? If not did you ask?
How did you find her program? Recommendation from someone? Why did you choose this program/provider?
Is there a shortage of infant care in your area?
I apologize for all the questions but I’m trying to understand all the facts as well as both perspectives (parent/provider).
