We don't have a hard deadline to get into work in the mornings, so it's hard to self motivate to be on time every morning! We usually settle for being within a few minutes of 9 am either way.
I would love to make dropoffs closer to 8 am, but Olive has been sleeping in and so that's not possible now. (Olive actually wakes up super early but Bee's able to get her back down and then she sleeps in.) Maybe later though.
Are you early, on time or late to childcare dropoff in the mornings?

My LO is one of the last kids there in the mornings at right before 8, she's also always one of the last to be picked up at 5!

The area our daycare is located in has a lake on one side, and a road undergoing massive construction on the other. So there is only one way to get there. The actual street where my daycare is located has the daycare, an elementary school, and a middle school on it.
If we don't get there before 8, the entire area backs up with parents dropping off kids and school buses (who have a hard time navigating through all the construction!)
If we leave the house any later than 745, we will be late to work (have to be there by 9). Getting out of that area and getting on the road to work takes even more time than the house-to-daycare part.

My lo is always one of the first three kids there at 7am. Thankfully she isn't the last to be dropped off, since I pick her up at 4:30.

Early...DS is one of the first in his class to arrive each morning. We get up about 6:40 each morning and get him across the street by 7:10

Late! But it's okay because we drop her off at the nanny share house. Our nanny gets to the house a little before 8 and I get there sometime between 8:15 & 9 a.m.

@mrbee: my husband does the dropping off and he's usually running behind.
I drop off on Fridays and I'm always early. I have 30 extra minutes to get there though.

Usually early. She doesn't wake up til like 6:50, and since I need to be at work at 7:30, I'm usually there before 7. I have to wait like 5 minutes for her to hear me knocking

We are rarely on time. I work from home, so don't feel that pressure to get to the office at a specific time. I aim for 9:00 drop-off, but it usually is a few minutes after.

I'm usually late dropping him off and late picking him up. It's sooo hard getting out of the house in the morning.
