Hi! Its been a long time since I've been on here. I hope you are all well. I have a question - I hope its ok to ask.

I have an opportunity to impact some policies in my state regarding how we regulate infants and toddlers.

There is a shortage of infant spots and the regulatory office is looking to change rules to make it easier to care for infants. One idea so far is allowing home providers to care for more infants than currently allowed. There have to be more ways than just ratio specific that would make caring for infants less burdensome as far as the state goes, while still keeping kiddos safe.

Question:
1. What is the hardest thing about caring for infants in general?
2. What licensing rule regarding infants is the most difficult to follow? or do you wish would be changed or eliminated?

Thanks in advance for your answers!
