That's just my take on it-I could cope with 5,but it's not something I would do.
I'm with you, from a personal viewpoint, I'm stretched to capacity with 4 under 5's I don't feel I could offer quality care to 5 of them, unless say 4 of them were already 3 1/2-4 years of age. I totally admire those who can do it. Trying to do preschooler activities, letting babies join in, assist pre-schoolers whilst making sure babies don't eat the paint, etc is flippin hard work
if you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got
