I have an almost 2 year old and a 3 month old in a daycare center. It's the only center in the area with cameras, which is one of the reasons we chose it. This chain came recommended by people I know, but none of them used this specific location.

My only issues are in the infant room. This is supposed to be for non mobile babies but I see them combine the two infant rooms most of the time so it's an even mix of mobile and non-mobile babies. What I see a lot is that he hangs out in a bouncy seat most of the day. They change and feed him regularly enough but in between he's in the bouncy seat. He's rarely in his crib (but that doesn't surprise me b/c he hates sleeping alone/in the crib) - but I rarely see him sleeping in the bouncy seat either, just hanging out/squirming. I worry he's crying much of the time because often when I go to pick him up he's just laying there crying (as are several other babies). The teachers don't seem lazy, they are always moving/doing something so I guess I don't know why a new center would help.

He's been there for 3 weeks so maybe I'm not giving it enough time. I put my first in an in-home daycare which I loved when he was an infant, but I really like a "school" setting for him now and I'm not willing to have them go to two separate daycares.

Is this a typical infant daycare experience? Would you consider switching? What can I do about this now - talk to the teachers more (they generally say he's had a good day but when pressed they are vague about whether or not he was crying)? Talk to the director?
