Hi Dan

I'd really like to be able to help you out with this question (spent many years as a teacher in a 0-2 year room in long day care) however just have to duck out at the moment and it will take me ages to answer you properly. If you like can you PM me your email addy and I will sent you a basic fact sheet about choosing child care and it discusses what accreditation is (a requirement for centres to met in order to offer the child care rebate) and gives a breif overview to get you started and hopefully help prompt you with some more specific questions as you get to know more.

All the best and yes it is perfectly normal for you to feel guilty (you're a great Mum) and with time and especially when you are comfortable with the service you have chosen the guilt will lessen. Really there is so much to comment on and I'd like to help - I promise to get back to you when I come home.

Take care XXXXX
