I think I'm the default. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629683 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 22:51:12 +0000 LatteLove 2629683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't seem to get daycare to default to calling my husband - even though he picks up on sick day 90% of the time! So the answer is me but it should be my spouse. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629681 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 22:48:44 +0000 ALV91711 2629681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They call my cell, then my work phone, then DH. </p> <p>85% of the time they get me on my cell. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629645 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 21:21:57 +0000 Boogs 2629645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not in daycare, but for school and such I'm always #1 on the list to call since I SAH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629627 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 20:31:55 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2629627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly, I'm not sure! Our daycare lady has never had to call us during the day! We've never had to pick him up for being sick cause the times he's been sick, we knew in the AM and kept him home. And she doesn't really tell us stuff during the day. He's had some behavior incidents, but she just waits to tell us at pick up. </p> <p>At our old center though, they called us evenly. I was in classes and DH worked closer to daycare so half the time, one of us was unavailable to answer our phone </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629430 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 16:51:24 +0000 Astro Bee 2629430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband, since he is able to have his cell phone on him at work. I can't, and am frequently in meetings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629417 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 16:17:29 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2629417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629376 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 15:43:07 +0000 Alivoo01 2629376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me. DH doesn't have access to his phone at work unless it's a break so they always contact me first. Plus, I do all the dropoff and pickup so they're more familiar with me than DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629329 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:54:31 +0000 pachamama 2629329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They call my husband because he works in the town of daycare and I'm 25 minutes away. Plus I'm a teacher so phone calls are tricky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629322 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:49:32 +0000 wheres_c 2629322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me because until recently I was the closest (WFH). Now DH also WFH so it doesnt matter.<br /> They've called a few times while I've been traveling for work and I've just asked if they could call DH instead. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629318 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:46:02 +0000 tinyperson 2629318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH - he works across the street. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629286 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:27:27 +0000 Smurfette 2629286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me cause they know DH travels a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629272 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:20:36 +0000 Truth Bombs 2629272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me, then hubs. They've never gotten this far but we have a few other families at day care whom we are incredibly close with (and everyone at school knows it) so they would call one of those moms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629269 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:19:42 +0000 Corduroy 2629269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DCP has a running group text with me and DH.

So far they've never not gotten a hold of one of us, but they do have emergency contact numbers (my mom and my best friend). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629259 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:14:08 +0000 avivoca 2629259@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My spouse, since he works next door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629257 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:13:23 +0000 yoursilverlining 2629257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me - daycare is located on my work campus so it's a no brainer. They call my cell first, then my office phone (I almost always have my cell with me in meetings) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629254 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:10:36 +0000 Mamaof2 2629254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DCP calls me first</p> <p>Public school calls DH ,not sure why though as I thought I put my name first </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-daycare-call-first#post-2629250 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:08:53 +0000 mediagirl 2629250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do they call you or your spouse? Is there someone else that they are calling?</p> <p>My name is first on the call list. Then they call my husband. If they can't get us, they wait and try again. If it's an emergency, they'll go to the next person in line - a friend. </p>
