Babies are alright until they start leaking. Then I hand them back to their parents. lol.
But it's really good that there's people who love taking care of kids. There is a serious shortage of quality affordable daycare.
When I have my own daycare I will not accept any children who have not yet been potty trained. I changed enough diapers over the years working in facilities so since I can make my own rules, that is my main one. LoL.
I don't really mind kids screaming - and they do not seem to scream much in my presence, I dunno if it's because of my demeanor or my aura or what but kids and I always seem to get along pretty well. I love being around kids and would rather be around them than adults. Same with animals. Kids and animals are innocent and don't judge you the way adults with preconceived notions do.
I find that with children who misbehave or scream a lot, it is almost always the fault of the parents. Honestly, people should be forced to go through parenting classes whenever they get pregnant because there are a lot of idiot parents out there.
