I do have a separate room for nap that I check visually occ and I do allow SA children that prove they can make good choices play outside without me.
I also am allowed to potty alone- but kids have to be set up before- generally I usually put infants in pnp and toddlers tend to come in or stand just outside the door.
Don't be afraid to post. I really think this is a discussion that needs to be had. We all have our own philosophies of care and our own set of regs to follow. I just really want to know where everyone stands on this issue, and hopefully some who allow children to "free range" might reconsider, as it becomes a major liability issue when someone gets hurt under our watch, when we aren't actually watching, KWIM?
