I don't think that provider meant anything bad about having a lot of daycare children, I just think her point was that if you only have a few kids, you would have more time to spend with each of them on a more one on one level. I only take 2 myself and I do have time to spend more individual time with them. They get their diaper changed right away when they have wet or poopy pants, where if you have many kids and they all need changing, you just can't get to all of them right away,that is just a small example. But I do agree with her on the number of children in the provider's care, it does make a difference. I do daycare because I love the kids and am fortunate to be doing daycare because I love kids and not because I really need the money, so I am able to take only a few kids. I know it is not that way for many of you,so don't take that the wrong way.
