Hi smilies4u
No i am not at work the day she is in day care.
And i guess this is my argument - it is more to get her used to playing with other children when i am not there - as bub is due soon and i may need a day off when bub arrives

At the moment i am planning ot use the day doing chores etc to catch up as i work all weekends.

We have mothers group 1-2 times a week and most bubs are younger than her there (give or take one or two) and go to the local play centre for gym and climbing etc.

But i said to DH tonight - if all she is going to do it play with the assistant because the other kids are just crawling or not running about like she is - then she may as well be at home and all use the $40 in daycare costs to pay a cleaner to clean for me!
