Against regulations
 

As a parent of a two year old and infant I am against some of the new regulations. I have been very happy with our childcare and feel confident I am leaving my children in loving hands. These new regulations will lead to increased cost for the family’s in an already costly area. It would cause stress on our family. Our children have been thriving at Springfield Acadamy. I ask you to reconsider your stance on CPR requirement, serious injury notification, group size, director qualifications, teacher age restrictions and development and implement of written policy. All through my teenage years I worked with kids and that help lead me to become a middle school teacher. As a teacher I have learned that a lot of different people like to place regulations and in the end it is the educators in the field that know what is best for the children. Please take feedback into consideration.
