The Search Is Over

That is right folks, the daycare search is over. I shopped for my last daycare today. A place called New Horizons. It was a new building- I liked how the rooms looked. I walked in and the Director introduced herself and told me she would be a minute. One minute turned into ten and I watched my surroundings. I had a baby room to my right and one just ahead of me. Throughout the entire ten minutes I was waiting the lady in the room to my right did not say a single word to any of the children. I was kind of looking forward to my child being socialized while in daycare :( The room ahead of my had a half door. I could see the top of a crib from my sitting postition. When it started to move I wondered why it was moving. Sure enough a baby had tried to pull himself up and the crib fell on top of him. It gets worse- The caretaker in that room said to the injured child, "Well, you're the one who dumped the crib on top of yourself." Ugh! I wasn't happy. I wanted to just walk out, but I went ahead and let the woman give me the tour. During the tour I told her what all I witnessed. She showed me both the rooms that I wouldn't ever want my son staying and then a third room. In that room there was a young girl playing games with the kids and another girl feeding, talking to and holding a tiny baby. I loved that room. I asked the woman if I was to bring Dru there could I pick the room. She said no and that it would depend on where the openings were. And of course, the openings were in the two rooms I witnessed hell in. No daycare for Dru. He is going to stay home with me and I don't care if I get evicted haha! I give up. I'll just work more nights when Billy can take Dru.
