It is clean, bright and well maintained. They have security measures. Whenever I call, a person answers. The administrators and teachers are friendly and seem like the want to be there.
They use an app which gives real time updates on what your kid is doing. So, for example, I got one at say, 2:30pm for a wet diaper. Another at 4pm when a bottle was started. A photo at some point to show whatever activity at the time. I'm happy to see tummy time. We still need to drop by unannounced to see what things are like. This center has monitors in the lobby so you can look into the classrooms.
It's a nice place. So far so good. And now, we really appreciate it.
Ethan's first day was Monday and we were totally comfortable handing him over. I'm guessing he got a lot of stimulation that day because he could barely stay awake to have his bedtime bottle.
Tuesday was a big day too. We all got up and left the house together to the helmet people to get measured in order to make it. The only difference from last week is that the image taken involved a stocking over the whole head instead of one that left the face exposed. Why they don't just do the full scan in the first place is beyond me; but it did seem like this second visit was a waste.
We go back on Tuesday for the helmet. :(
It's not quite like that. It's actually more of a band than a helmet. Here's the real site. If you scroll to the bottom, there's a picture of a baby's head from the top view with and without the helmet. This is exactly what's going on with Ethan's head. Poor baby.
In other news, it's trial by fire with the new project. It is definitely different from my old project but I haven't decided if it is better or worse. Unfortunately, I don't have the luxury of sitting back and observing the dynamic. The big milestone is at the end of the month, and we're almost halfway there. That is, with having to deliver the goods, not our internal status of how we feel we're doing. Ha!
