Infant daycare feet question.

[dottyblue]

We always just did socks until a few months ago when he started standing/walking with assistance. They were fine all winter long.

[hbear]

I used to just do socks.

[alzi]

Nothing or socks. I do like those booties though:)

[speckledfrog]

Infant rooms usually have a no shoe policy, don't they? Socks are good!

[spellingbea]

Socks. I usually just keep an extra pair in her diaper bag in case she needs them.

[EmilieMadison]

Socks are fine.

Socks

When DD was in the infant room we did socks. Socks with grippies when she started pulling up.Robeez were great when she started walking (and sent outside shoes in her bag). They do have a "neat feet" policy. Either no shoes or inside and outside shoes.

We live in a warm climate. We generally took 'em in with nothing on their feet.

[jssymom14]

I send her with no socks but the in-home always thinks her toes are cold and puts them on her. I have said she doesn't need them, especially since she loves to stick her feet in her mouth, but she is so worried about her that I brought a few pairs just to leave there.

Socks when she was a baby baby and then when she started pulling herself up and cruising a bit little Robeez type shoes.

[SusanBAnthony]

We did Robeez type shoes, because they stayed on. Plenty of kids were barefoot. Socks were fine, but they would just end up barefoot anyway, so sort of pointless. It was a shoe-free room, but as long as you carried them in, and they weren't walking outside in the shoes, robeez were fine.

Just socks

[sineadorebellion]

This brand was our favorite when they were little. Socks that look like shoes. www.trumpette.com/socks/mack-s-0-12-m.html

LOL, me too!

I think I sent her in sleepers until she was at least 6 months old.

I miss sleepers.

I miss little babies in sleepers. There is a little flour sack baby at Leo's daycare and I want to take him and just snuggle. Leo doesn't want to snuggle me anymore. Too busy.

That's a brilliant idea. I need to get more.

I will give you the advice a coworker game me. Go buy the most snuggliest, softest, cutest little sleepers there are. Use those for daycare. the workers won't be able to resist to snuggle your little guy. I tried it out and it worked lol. Our DCP had two babies the same age one being Leo. She told me one day that she loved the snuggly sleepers I dressed him in and couldn't resist just carrying him around all day.
SCORE!

[eddy]

LOL POG

My biggest regret was not videotaping our evening routine of rocking and bottles. UUUUGGGHHH, why didn't I capture that. So sweet.

They're so cute!! But they'd also be his most expensive article of clothing to date! lol

I'm glad socks are the consensus. I thought that might be weird, so happy to hear it's the norm!!

Also, I never considered there might be a rule. We haven't gotten that kind of info yet.

you are lucky you have a boy. Lol

[CurlyQ284]

I send him in just socks. They have outside time in the morning (this covered porch area for babies). I hope he will be too interested in the outdoors/toys/kids to pull them off. I'm confident they come off when they get inside.

I don't mean to threadjack but I've been wondering about this with winter coming up. He is cruising and standing so I guess he needs these Robeez? Then when he starts walking and they do no shoes he goes back to just socks? Hmmm I think I saw a toddler with little shoes on. I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I just know he pulls socks off and I don't want him to go barefoot in the winter.

I got these for my son, they stay on well and give him just a little bit more than plain socks.

Most people in my class sent their kids in socks, or robeez until they were older.
