I do try to clean up the kitchen though during last snack of the day. They are at the table and I'm wiping down kitchen counters, loading dishwasher etc. It's all in the same room.
My concern is how the state is changing it's audits. They used to do a sampling of people when their license got renewed, but now they are doing surprise audits once a year. I'm afraid what they will think if they come in sometimes when we have stuff spread from 1 part of the house to the other. I hope they don't expect a tidy house. Anyhone have experience with that?
My licensor did a pop in on Valentine's Day. I am usually one who picks up as we go, but I hadn't felt great that day, I only had 3 kiddos and one was a almost 4 yo boy who wanted to do games and I was the only one who was able to do them (the other kids were just under 2) and when she came in the afternoon it was as if a tornado had hit. I definitely felt some judgement, but like whatever.
