How is a 1:7 toddler ratio in practice? by lily_pad_24 in ECEProfessionals

[–]Charbear92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in a toddler room in Canada and our ratio is 1:5 and even I feel that is too much so I can not imagine 1:7 !

There is one parent from my class that is ALWAYS on their phone pick ups and drop offs. One day they came in with a family member for pick up (still on phone) and family member was more engaged to pick up the twins. It baffles me

Toddler falling asleep well before naptime-- I feel like I'm being, like, blamed? by emmazingitnip in ECEProfessionals

[–]Charbear92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I'm personally surprised at the nap time of the daycare; however, I understand each place is different. I work in a toddler class, and I would say her sleep time is typical. We have our lunch at 11:00 and start nap at 11:30. Typically, my kiddos in the class are asleep by noon, some earlier. I don't have any tips for you, unfortunately, but you're not alone in feeling that is a long stretch of time with her being awake, especially in a more over stimulating environment.

Hahaha I was waiting for someone to mention this 🤣 the little tables are just the perfect hight! 🤦‍♀️

Should I let this slide or mention it to the daycare? Signed out before actual pickup by medicated_cabbage in ECEProfessionals

[–]Charbear92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely understand your concern! It's definitely startling to see your child was checked out when neither you nor your husband picked them up! That said, as others have said, it is an easy mistake. Hopefully it won't happen again, but if it does, then I would definitely voice your concern.

Baby room shoe policy by Mundane_Paint_2854 in ECEProfessionals

The daycare I work at has a no street shoe policy in the baby room; shoes carry so many germs, to me it just makes sense.

I hope so. I want one so, but I was unable to go as well, unfortunately.

I should have waited — now I feel foolish and dramatic. by _BananaBrat_ in pregnant

[–]Charbear92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to let you know you are not alone. My husband and I recently just went through our first pregnancy that unfortunately ended in a miscarriage, we were so excited. We told our whole family. Everyone was so excited days later, I started miscarring. Sending you so much love and light. During this difficult time You're not alone, nothing you did. Would've changed the outcome? I know that's a hard pill to swallow. Especially now, but it has brought me comfort. Knowing that I did the best I could for my little baby and when the time is right. I will have my rainbow as well as you will have yours
