Another question regarding phone calls...
Do you answer and/or return daycare calls during daycare hours? And do you first let your answering machine take the calls so you can screen them before calling them back?
I am considering not answering daycare calls (other than from my current parents) during daycare hours simply so it doesn't sound so crazy here when I first speak to them. We all know that the minute we get on the phone, all h** breaks lose with the kids. All of the sudden, a baby is starving to death and screaming at the top of their lungs or an older child starts yelling at another child.
Recently, I've been so worried about getting more income that I run to answer the phone, but I have started wondering if it might be better to wait until everyone has gone home so I can call them back in the evening when I know the house will be quite so it doesn't sound like a zoo in here!
