I am shocked that they wouldn’t list facilities as new or relocated instead of marking them as high and saying they are basically unfit. Seems unfair in my eyes.
The article clearly states that New Facilities would have a HIGH rating due to insufficient information on the facility. It does however indicate next to the rating that the facility is NEW and if you click for more information you will see how that rating was determined. I don’t think it is unfair at all to new facilities since this is a tool for parents seeking childcare I would much rather know that the facility I may be interested in received the high rating because it was new rather than just having hte high rating with no other explanation. It is still the parents responsibility to do their own research but this tool is a great starting point and I think both the Vancouver Sun and the Health Authority have done an excellent job.
My daughter was at work with me until she started walking. Not in HOME either. At my WORK. i would lay a playmat down for her to roll around on. I got her a bit jeep as she got older to cruise around the office in. And also a jumperoo and swing. It figured out fine. I’d say if your at a desk… it would be NO problem having him there with you. you can surprisingly do a lot while feeding… on a computer. And then during naptimes… save your more challenging stuff for then. As she started walking it was harder to monitor what all she was getting into… therefore, she now goes to daycare.
