I have never worked at a center, heck, I use to be a nurse before I did daycare, so I always thought that all those posts about crappy things that happen at centers only happened in the states, not here in ontario, but that all changed tonite.
so my 2 kids started gymnastics tonite, so I was sitting at a table with 2 women, who were talking to each other about kids, the more they talked the more I realized they worked at a daycare. I asked them and they said yes.
First, I found it odd that they used childrens names, I never do, call me nuts but I don't want anyone to know the name of the kids in my care
second, mom B was telling mom A how this boy eats nothing at care, so he started eating playdoh (homemade) and they commented at least he's eating![EEK!](https://chat.daycare.com/core/images/smilies/eek.png)
then they started talking about the lunch meals, omg, you guys would die if you heard what they serve kids, everything is "reheated" nothing is cooked properly and they said the kids eat nothing anyways so who cares, well in my house, I care and I believe this is important in a kids life.
they talked about how kids love to throw muffins across the rooms and crush goldfish crackers and throw them then, who the heck does this, not my kids for sure. Mom A was saying how the kids made such a mess eating cake that it was all over the floor.
they went on and on, I couldn't believe it. I would never ever send my kids there, and apparently when they do circle time no one wants to do it so they don't care (I don't do it in my house I know my kids wouldn't sit still so we do other things) they were talking about how they were training the kids to sit and watch tv![EEK!](https://chat.daycare.com/core/images/smilies/eek.png)

I just couldnt' believe it, I had to pick my mouth up off the floor. My mdd was with me at the table and she couldn't believe it either. Next week they will be there, it'll be interesting to hear what they have to say. Oh they were complaining about late pick up, so I told them how I run a tight ship and don't allow late pick unless its schedualed and they will have to pay, they couldn't believe it.
