How could you possibly give one to one attention to five infants at the same time. That's ridiculous! Every mother and child care employee should read Our Babies OurSelves by Meredith Small. I heard her speak and read her book - it is full of research from an anthropological perspective why babies must be at home with mom - sleep with mom - breastfed as long as possible. It's amazing! and really makes you think. I am a trainer and have been in hundreds of centers - those include naeyc accredidated centers. I have never seen ONE that had good quality infant care. Kids need time and attention from mom and dad.
