Do you have kids in daycare? I do and my daycare is awesome.

Literally none of the stuff you talk about ever happens, it’s a well-regulated school that takes amazing care of our kids and everything is under control. If there’s 3 parents picking up or dropping off at the same time it’s the exception. Maybe twice a week? A pickup or dropoff takes about 5 min so there’s not a lot of overlap.

These are just talking points from grouchy nimbys.

It’s also worth considering if the city is densifying as people are asking for there’s gonna be huge demand for all of the services (including childcare) that go along with that densification.
