When he was in the infant room i had to pack my son's lunch and bring in his sippies every day, prefilled, but now that he's in the toddler room i only bring one sippy a week and they wash it every day and between uses...but they won't use straw sippies. </p> <p>Other states have weird regulations for daycare - ie: mine, you can't pack food in anything glass, send wubbanubs in, etc... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/essential-daycare-gear#post-1424759 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 14:14:27 +0000 cascademom 1424759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: @wheres_c: I think that they provide Tylenol at our daycare. Also C don't forget to get an updated immunization form for LO. I need to get one for our next peds visit. I have our doctor email it to our provider for her records. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/essential-daycare-gear#post-1424751 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 14:12:01 +0000 yoursilverlining 1424751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Really depends on what your daycare provides. </p> <p>As an infant we only brought in bottles, diapers/wipes and a few spare changes of clothes.</p> <p>As a toddler we bring the same plus a blanket and stuffed toy for nap time. They provide all food, mats/P&amp;P for naps.</p> <p>We don't bring in meds because everything (even Tylenol!) has to have a doctors note, resigned every 6 months and I've been too lazy to get that done; plus we just pick her up if she spikes a fever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/essential-daycare-gear#post-1424747 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 14:11:37 +0000 wheres_c 1424747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>they provide lunch but he has food allergies so I'll pack it on days I know he cant eat the meal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/essential-daycare-gear#post-1424745 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 14:10:21 +0000 wheres_c 1424745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dagret: he's 14 months and a walker.</p> <p>I didn't even think about diapers/wipes. doh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/essential-daycare-gear#post-1424743 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 14:09:34 +0000 regberadaisy 1424743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wheres_c: how old? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/essential-daycare-gear#post-1424736 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 14:07:31 +0000 cascademom 1424736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It really depends on the daycare. We only have to provide extra clothes, shoes, diapers, and stuff like nasal spray, etc. Our daycare has wipes, PNPs for naps and receiving blankets as loveys. They also provide food for breakfast and lunch. If they need anything, they tell us. I don't know if it's an in home daycare or a center. I send boxes of diapers via Amazon instead of carrying a bunch during drop off or pick up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/essential-daycare-gear#post-1424710 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 13:58:25 +0000 dagret 1424710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wheres_c: waterproof/wash proof labels. you need more than you think you need - you have to label everything. How old is baby B? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/essential-daycare-gear#post-1424702 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 13:55:01 +0000 looch 1424702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pack two sets of extra clothes, in ziplock bags with his name on it to keep in his cubby. </p> <p>They also might need wipes, diapers, water bottle of some sort, sunscreen when it gets warmer, non perishable snacks?</p> <p>For the sleeping, ours is cots, so we send a sheet and a blanket. I embroidered his name on the sheets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/essential-daycare-gear#post-1424701 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 13:54:39 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1424701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think this totally depends on your place! Ours provides nap cots and backpacks. We just send sheets and a blanket. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/essential-daycare-gear#post-1424695 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 13:53:10 +0000 wheres_c 1424695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So baby B will be going to daycare in a few weeks.
