I don’t understand the logic behind the recommendation of changing gloves between no-touch temperature taking. These kids are touching each other all day long. Seems like a ridiculous waste of money and supplies for gloves. I already have to use two pair just to change a diaper, according to state regs.
At the market rates set by NY, paid in my county, I can’t afford the extra expenses of the gloves and masks at the current gouged prices.
It’s no wonder there’s such a “shortage” of child care providers. I’ve had six different licensors since 2016. Even they can’t stand the job while getting government benefits 😂
You're right. A lot of it makes no sense. If only the people who are making these rules can spend a day in the life of a provider they'll see the rules aren't helpful at all.
Did you apply for the CARES Materials Grant Application for Licensed Child Care Providers?
