Hey ,

It's 3:47 PM on a Tuesday.

You're down a teacher (again). Eight toddlers are in various states of post-nap chaos. Three parents just walked in for pickup while you're trying to change a diaper blowout.

Emma's having a meltdown because her mom isn't here yet. Jackson just bit someone. The afternoon snack is still on the counter, and you realize you forgot to send the daily report to Mrs. Chen.

Sound familiar?

Here's what we learned from talking to 200+ childcare providers: 73% of behavioral incidents happen during transitions and idle time. The worst time? Pickup between 3-6 PM.

And here's the kicker: You're handling this alone more often than ever.

The staffing crisis isn't just about empty positions. It's about those moments when you're literally outnumbered and overwhelmed, doing the impossible with whatever tools you have.

What if you had an emergency protocol for these moments?

Something designed specifically for when chaos hits and you need 10 minutes to restore order?

Reply and tell me: What's your "3:47 PM moment"?

I'm building something that might help, but I need to hear your story first.
