The children, five in total, were peacefully asleep on the mattress, cuddling one another. In the corner, Maribel Walter, Axel’s best friend and co-owner of the establishment, was passed out under the sunspot, cradling her baby girl, in her arms. So far, it had been four years since Axel had stumbled upon this job. A sophomore in university pursuing child psychology and education, he had found this daycare center on his way to college. Funnily enough, he had taken the wrong route that day. But seeing the messily drawn recruitment flyers stuck on the window with little flowers and happy suns and stick figures on them, Axel couldn’t resist the warmth that bubbled inside his heart then, neither

Back then, I told myself they were just like family, so there was no need to get jealous. However, all those little signs I had ignored played back in my head, over and over. When she came back, we launched our design studio. I landed a whale of a client, a deal that put us on the map overnight. On the night of our big bash, I had one too many and wanted her to pick me up. I called over and over, but got nothing. Finally, a coworker ended up driving me home. The morning after, she came to me with puffy, red eyes, spilling the story of how Yoel was heartbroken, how he had drowned his sorrows in booze at the bar, and how she had stayed with him through the night.

“I’m – I’m working on things. I’m feeling clearer, more centered.” The other women nodded quietly. “You hungry?” Emma said, changing the subject. “You can come and sit, meet some of the women and the younger kids, chat over lunch.” “There are lots of kids here?” Alexandra said, and nobody could miss the longing in her voice. “I love kids.” “Well, some of them are at school, of course,” Emma said. “But we have eight in the daycare program in-house while their Moms take lessons, job hunt, and have therapy sessions.”

I nod, meeting his stern gaze. “Of course. She’s a sponge right now. The daycare did a fair amount of educational play to make it seem fun for the kids and I could bring some of that into the house.” I loved all those games, and my mind wanders before I remind myself I don’t have the job yet.

I put my resume everywhere, kindergartens, schools, famous companies, restaurants, I even cry with fear of not getting a new job. But, thank God, I am called to work at a day care center, Universo Infantil. The name is very cute and, as soon as I get to know the place, I almost give up on staying, because the children look more like little demons. Oh, problem children, for God's sake! They throw papers at everyone, there are scratches on the walls, even paint splatters. These kids are not normal. Too unlucky, I'm accepted into the nursery to take care of these little brats, but the school isn't bad, it pays well and the teachers aren't that annoying, I mean, some really are, some aren't.

Jessi got the job at the local daycare and was loving it. Her and KC had gotten closer together. She had even been spending nights with him in the clubhouse. Jessi arrived at the daycare at 8am as usual. She had just started helping checking kids in. Two policemen walked into the daycare looking for her.

I sat with my back on the headboard while Aiden and Abby lay on either side of me, with their heads leaning against me as I told them as much as I could remember from one of the bedtime stories Celine and I were usually forced to sit through back at the foster home. We always found it boring and would be among the first kids to do off before she even read two lines from the story, the other kids would fall closely behind, it was that dreadful. But tonight, the kids found my old, half-complete, gap-filled story fascinating enough to listen to as I tried to lull them to sleep.

It was dark and still when Lucas woke in his bedroom. The covers were like warm clouds, and he was engulfed. He didn’t want to get out of bed, but knew that he had quite the day ahead of him. After a few minutes of debating with himself, Lucas rose from his bed with the covers still wrapped around him and walked over to the window. This was a moment he wanted to soak in. He absorbed the chill radiating from the hard floor, and allowed the warmth of the covers to spread through his body. The sun was starting to peak up from the horizon, and the smell of coffee was looming from the automatic coffee maker in the kitchen. Lucas particularly enjoys sun rises more than sun sets, he believes the be

The next day, she went out to look for work, she came to a ‘Little Steps’ daycare center where there was a sign indicating that they needed staff. “Do you have experience with children?” asked Sarah, the director, when it was her turn to be interviewed. “I took care of my little cousins,” answered Gia, and it wasn’t entirely a lie, she helped her neighbors take care of their children when they went out. “References?” “I just moved, but I can learn quickly.” Sarah observed her for a moment, she seemed like a good girl. “There’s something about you that gives me confidence, okay, I’ll give you a chance.”

"She's fun. I like her." "I do too. Now, Nanny Sarah is going to watch you when I go to work tomorrow." "So I don't have to go to daycare?" "No sweetie, not anymore." "Will you still come have lunch with me?" I held my arms out. "Come sit on Mommy's lap." Heidi's daycare was located on the second floor of my building and I'd been able to come down for lunch most days. It had been our special time, and I was going to miss it. She crawled up onto my leg and I explained it to her gently. "And you'll be starting school next week and you'll meet new friends and have so much fun."
