I would not have cameras that allow the parents to see the children at daycare. I operate a very good daycare, but I would feel sub-conscience about everything that the kids and I did all day long if I knew that parents or anyone was able to constantly watch everything that happened here. Just like you said, you were doing your job of changing a diaper, and since the baby was crying in her ( I think you meant) playpen, and you knew that a parent might be watching and upset that the baby is crying and you weren't tending to him/her, you got all flustered. You can't be good at your job while you are flustered.

If you want cameras, I would use them, like you said, for YOUR purpose of proof that you did nothing wrong if something happens and a parent wants to claim you liable.
