Childcare

How do you feel about childcare centers? Would you or have you put your child into a daycare? I wanted to know what people feel about childcare centers and also what do you think of the teachers? Do you feel the teachers are just babysitters? Or do you feel they have a very important role in the shaping and molding of the young minds they care for. Children can attend childcare from 6 weeks of age to 5 years old before going to school, and generally spend about 50 hours a week in these centers and with these teachers. The first 5 years are the most important developmentally in a child's life.
