A while ago I asked my HR department why we didn't have on site day care.  First of all, the problem that effects most places is space.  There is no where in our building to set up an on-site day care.  



That being said, there is also no where for the kids to play out doors.  There is a car dealership on one side of us and the remaining three sides have roadways (including one major highway).



Also, on site daycare requires additional staff, facilities (little toilets and the like) and liability insurance.



Perhaps instead of on-site daycare our employers could provide daycare reimbursements (similar to tuition reimbursements).  Any other suggestions?
