flea1. I want RF Mom to like me. There are practical reasons for this - I work with her every day - and impratical ones - I want to be approved of by someone who is very popular and well-liked.
2. I am wary of corporate child care. On a practical level, we should ask to tour the facility, which I haven't done in 2 years. On an emotional/social instinct level, I'm not sure if anything can be done about this. I do have a strong feeling that a family-like setting is best for the care of children under 4/5. Corporate day care centers feel like warehousing to me although I know they aren't.
3. I wonder if I would be able to leave my 3 month old in a room with 7 other babies under one year old and 2 adults? If I wouldn't, we might as well just hire someone to care for Casper and hypothetical future sib in our home - the cost is about the same, since 2 kids in a center is $$.
4. Yeah, opting in is the obvious choice. The real dilemma is what to do if we are offered the spot.
