The only way to get toddlers into Daycare is if all Sims aged Teen and up from your household leave the lot (go to work/school or travel). There's no "send to daycare" option, unfortunately.
What you may be able to do instead is to hire a nanny, though they can be rather unhelpful.
If you're away from a lot, Sims won't start a fire, as far as I'm aware, they can only happen on actively played lots. So if you take Linda off to go fishing, the family will be fine, besides some of their needs going down (and beware, they're dropping rather fast after the most recent patch). No fires, no disasters of epic proportions while you're away. But do keep an eye on the needs in case you need to head home to take care of the toddlers if their needs drop too far.
Bottom line: if you go fishing while the husband is at work, the toddlers will be automatically sent to Daycare. If you go fishing while he's home, he'll take care of the toddlers and you can also hire a Nanny (who, I believe, will stay until you dismiss them).
Thank you! :smile: I'll have to try leaving the lot when the family is out to school and work then.
I had trouble with nannies so far. Either they won't enter my house, or they won't appear. It's so weird. But maybe they can't enter cause I have the doors locked for all but family XD So maybe that's my bad. I think I still have a nanny tho. I guess I should try opening my house to employees too.
Thank you for letting me know a great disaster can't happen if I'm away from my house to fish :smiley: I'll have to try this out! :smile:
