Just wondering what everyone does for their own kids in the daycare situation
The daycare provider is an older lady who runs a home daycare. Seats are taken in/out of her van all the time. She will be picking my kids up from school twice a week if I end up getting the job I interviewed for.
The older to kids are very very good at always buckling and do very well in their Literiders so I plan on keeping two there for them (extras we have here). My concern is dd2, 4 yrs old, 36lbs. In our cars she is harnessed 100% of the time and can buckle herself correctly 90% of the time (I check everything over before leaving)... She does get easily frustrated though if the straps twist on her.
I have no idea how many top tethers the DC ladies van has or how good she is at installing convertibles, attaching tt's, or even checking dd's buckle work :/
Would it be wrong to get dd a HBB with a 30lb min. to use so I'm not worrying about the installation being done right?
I would teach dd to buckle in the booster, plus my older two would be there to assist correct booster buckling. She is a very shy child so I don't see any moving out of position especially not with another adult.
What would you do? What do you do? Any suggestions?
Between Halloween/birthdays/possibly needing work clothes/shoes/extra gas until I get my first check I really don't have a lot to spend on a seat either :/
