We've been in your exact shoes.
The deal with subsidized child care is that the child MUST attend when not ill in order to maintain their spot and the low cost. If you take the child out for those two days, your ex may demand that you pay the full absence rate (as to not use any of the allotted sick days). But that is something that you know best. I know that my stepson's mom is a b*tch when it comes to using any of "her" subsidized sick days - as she calls it.
But, if you're able to take care of the child yourself, you should have the right to do so.
I think this is more of a money issue than a care issue.
Have you asked your ex why she is demanding you taking the child to daycare when you are fully capable of caring for her yourself?
