Now that I am working three days a week, Sienna is at daycare. It was such a hard decision to make about where to take her. I came across a lovely centre 5 minutes from home that is tucked away amongst trees and away from any main roads.
I don’t understand why so many daycare centres are parked on busy street corners and main roads. In December 2003 Sophie Delezio almost lost her life when a car crashed through the wall of her daycare centre and burst into flames. This little girl’s life will never be the same. So many centres I visited where on street corners and they only had a brick wall between the road and the outside pay area. I found this quite frightening so it was really important for us to find a centre that was safe.
We also wanted to send her somewhere that had an open door policy. This means we can visit her during the day and it has been fantastic! Matt is a sales rep so he has been able to pop in during the day for a quick cuddle and my dad (Poppy) also visits her every Tuesday as he is in the area for work.
It was very hard for me to leave her the first time but since she always has a smile on her face when she is there, I am pretty comfortable to head off to work and not worry.
The ladies at the centre always seem so glad to see her and give her lots of cuddles. It is nice to know that Sienna is in good hands and that she is well looked after.
We are getting a family photo taken tomorrow at the centre for only $10.00. It should be fun!
