Dear Concerned Mom, I dont think you are being paranoid it is only natural to think that way its what makes you a mom. if iy makes you feel better why dont you call Occupational Health and Safety and they may do a check she should have a license or see if you can contact other parents to see if they have any concerns. It is so hard to find a good sitter is she private or has a building???

Hi. I am now 14 years old but I find it very embarassing when my mom talks about me when i was born especially because evertime she mentions that I was born at 11 pounds! It's so annoying!

HI! My name is Nicole. I'm 23 and married to Brandon, 25. We have two beautiful kids. Bradley, 2 on Mother's Day, and Ava, 5.5 months. Ava is exclusively breastfed. I have yet to start her on baby food. I'm having a hard time accepting that she will be getting food from a source other than me! LOL! I am sort of a SAHM. I work from home making baby & toddler hair clips. Check out my store if you'd like.

Try to sneak up on the day care, I trained in daycare and I can tell you that, if you sneak up most of the time you will be surprised of what you see, I couldnt stand it, I was trained in High School but didnt really go any further if they arent really watching the kids honey I would find a new day care provider, or maybe consider working from home. I am a stay at home mom but we dont really have to many bills either, but I would really be worried about it maybe call your local inspection agency (Idont know) but I wouldnt trust her

Hello I'm needing some advice. I have a 18 month old and he has just started a new daycare about two weeks ago. I have seen a couple of things that makes me a little nervous. First, the third day he was there I picked him up and when we got home I noticed his diaper had not been changed. I spoke with her about it and she said she thought she had but it's possible she made a mistake. I let that go. But then I noticed she's changing the hours she's available which is kind of up setting. But we worked that out. Then I noticed that her 5 year old child was not dressed one day walking around in her underwear and when I picked my son up she was still in her underwear. And every since he started the new day care he won't sleep through the night. Then last night he started screaming like crazy for me and I didn't get him calmed down for almost 20 minutes. Am I being paranoid?

Just wanted to say hello to all the wonderful mommies here. I am a mother to 5. My sweet dh still is happy to co sleep with our 2yo, even when I am not home (I work 3rd shift 4 nights a week). We are expecting #6 and he is comfortable with both still being in the bed. I still nurse the 2yo as it is much a comfort to her. I make sure though if I notice she is really hunger I get solid food in her. We are constantly learning and evolving our eating habits. For now we are up to home made, no sugar, no processed, no additives. We do very little meat. I hs my kiddos as well. I feel so blessed to be in your presence.

Hi Amanda~

Thanks so much for the advice. We have opted to forego the end of the cosleeping w. our son for now, but that will be a good bit of info for the future ;D

We are getting ready to hs our 4.5 yo in the fall. I'd be interested to talk to you about any advice you might have, what curriculum you use, etc.

Thanks,
Tina

Hi Kilinda and Tina,

  kilinda,I don't think it's strange at all.While I'm not Vegan or Vegetarian we do strive to give our children the healthiest of upbringing.We also co-sleep and extended nurse(well I do that part,LOL)our two year old daughter.We did the same with our sons.We are also homeschooling our two oldest(boys ages 10 in the 6th grade and 8 in the 4th grade)and have done so from the beginning.

Tina,As for getting you 4yr old to sleep on his own.What worked for our boys was to place a toddler bed next to ours then slowly(days,weeks,whatever works)move it away from our bed .They got the security of being with Mommy and Daddy and also the independence of being in their own bed.We made a big deal out of it by letting them pick out their own special beddind and nightlights.


I say to each family its own, with love.

Hi Niambi,

We are trying to get our almost 4 yo used to sleeping on his own, too. If you get a chance could you share some of the ways you helped him sleep on his own? Thanks.

Hi Ladies--

I cosleep with our 3 month old...much to my husband's chagrin. We have another son who is 4...it took him a while to get used to sleeping on his own. I loved it because it gives me an opportunity to bond with my children after being on the go all day.

Hello Kilinda. We live in Virginia. I had a C section after twenty wonderful easy hours of labor, we co-sleep and I am still nursing my health VERY INDEPENDENT daughter (usually at night). My husband is a vegan, and a wonderful cook so we have choosen to start our child on this path, she likes fries but will also ASK for fruits/veggies and water - I too strive for 80-90% healthy food. I certainly do not think you are strange.

My name is Kilinda Bellow and I live in Richmond Texas. I have a 3 year old son and a 20 month old daughter. I had both of my kids at home with a midwife. I breastfed both of them. We cosleep and I will be homeschooling soon. We eat about 80% fruits and vegetables. We are striving very hard to become 100% fruits and vegetables. I'm just looking for someone who shares my passions or someone who will not think I'm strange. My email address is aaronandkilinda@yahoo.com. Contact me I'd love to hear from you.
