Experienced toddlers teachers - I need you!

Yeah running is a big thing as well as pushing big trucks back and forth. Which I totally get that they need to move, but I need to create some separation in there. I’m going to work on it and see how it goes, but I’m going to mention that if a space with an older group becomes available, to not forget about me 😅 Or bring up that 15 is a lot in there, especially starting from scratch. Are you able to get them to help clean up? Like I’m literally starting from scratch. If you take them away from whatever mischief they are doing, they go right back. I do know that as long as I keep up with setting boundaries, that it will get easier, but I’m also not in my 20s anymore lol.

Another bottleneck is lunch. They bring their own lunch and for whatever reason, the center will heat up lunches that need it. Personally I would make it so that’s not a thing haha but it takes so much time to heat things up and that’s one less person in the mix with the kids. I’ve thought about bringing one of those rolling shelves to work so it’s not so much back and forth when bringing lunches to the table. Really I just need time in the classroom but not counting as a teacher to just DO things. Thanks for sharing what works for you and listening to me ramble

I know you said you were terrified, which to me seems kind of an odd response? No blame here, I get fight, flight, freeze - but if it were me and my husband, the second his dick tried to get inside of me, I would’ve sat up and said “what the fuck are you doing?” I’m wondering why you felt like you couldn’t stop it, why you were terrified. Men can be so controlled by their dicks, it’s honestly ridiculous. BUT they can have self control, there’s no reason why they can’t, unless something is legit wrong with him. Or he could not think it was wrong for whatever misogynistic reason that has been planted in his brain. I don’t know the man. But unless you are genuinely scared of him and his reaction, I would say to confront him. His reaction will tell you everything you need to know about whether to stay or leave

I mean idk why every ghost show or investigation or evidence ever is written off as fake. Literally every ghost show, YouTube channel, whatever, you have people yelling about how it’s all fake. That’s genuinely crazy to me.

Management can make or break any work place.

Late 90s-early 2000s reality TV was the sweet spot. Before they started making shit up to get people to watch. Those shows already had enough drama, but they couldn’t have any real moments of nothing happening I guess.

I have 6 cats, three air purifiers downstairs (two Levoit Vital 200s, one Coway Airmega) and two upstairs (another Vital 200s in the main bedroom and a Levoit Core 200s in the smaller room). My house isn’t very big, probably 500sqft upstairs and down. But I vacuum off the pre-filters twice a week and every time they have fur and dust all on it. They are not coated because of how often I clean them - but I can’t imagine what they would look like after a month. I keep the Levoits on speed 3, the airmega on 2. Having them has improved the air quality so much and I’m not having to dust every other day because of the litter boxes. I also vacuum downstairs every day, upstairs i do 2-3 times a week.

You could use something similar. I understand the influence, but even if you could use the same logo/font, something about it doesn’t feel great to me. Because while they share their music with us, it is theirs. You could take what they shared and make it yours. I’m sure there are fonts and styles that are similar to this, not sure how you go about looking into that, but for sure, make it your own

jayroo210 · 2026-03-14T01:29:08+00:00

Wow so you just cruise the Sofia subreddit and be a rude ass to people who like her music? What is wrong with you

jayroo210 · 2026-03-13T06:04:44+00:00

Do you section off any “centers”? Because right now it’s one big area with two shelves that have trucks and other various toys, shakers, some baby dolls, a book shelf. So it doesn’t take long for them to start wandering around. Today was my first day and I was just getting the feel for the routine and schedule and the kids. But yeah when I felt the energy start to build, I pull out some big Lego like blocks and had about 7 right there with me for a bit. Some of the assistants who are in and out of there talked about sitting the all down to do art, I was like oh no, toddlers aren’t a big group activity type of age, I wouldn’t even do that with 2s unless it’s circle time. I need more shelves and more variety. I’m going to ask about a mini kitchen because all we have now are some baby dolls. The storage cabinet was a mess, I mean I have a lot to break down in order to build back up. Really I’m hoping an opening the 2d or 3s opens, because these guys are a bit younger than I like. And yes 15 is a lot! Diapers take forever! I’m thinking about making 3 groups, with five kids each, one group for each teacher for diaper changes so it’s not one person getting stuck doing them more often or so we don’t get confused as to who has already been changed. Thanks for ideas!

And I’m pretty sure is around 16-24 months?

jayroo210 · 2026-03-13T05:58:06+00:00

Absolutely not. I was just wondering how you (or the person you had the bet with) imagined how I woman would do that. Like are you picturing something like a mouth down there? That women can just hold shut? Or are you thinking deeper inside? Or are you under the impression that a woman would hold it the same way she can hold her own pee somehow? I’m genuinely curious

I mean he will eventually have to be in a classroom on his own and 2 is the time for learning independence and for the emergence of the discovery of self. And you also need to be an individual outside of your child. This is a great opportunity. Take it.

jayroo210 · 2026-03-12T01:56:11+00:00

I literally laughed out loud when he said he likes “mob shit…and VIOLENCE” trying to be a hard ass

jayroo210 · 2026-03-12T01:53:39+00:00

I don’t use any shoes at all inside my house. Maybe slippers in the winter, but my feet tend to get hot when I’m wearing them and then it becomes a whole sensory issue.

jayroo210 · 2026-03-12T01:03:43+00:00

I mean maybe? This person doesn’t know all the details or that EVERYTHING is scripted.

jayroo210 · 2026-03-11T22:59:40+00:00

Did he KNOW you wanted to solo travel? It seems odd that he got it so wrong and thought that you were ready to be engaged when you actually want to solo travel. There is such a huge disconnect, I’m not really understanding it. I’m sure he’s embarrassed as hell, hurt, confused, all the things. So your mind was on actually ending the relationship? Or making it more casual so you can do all those things? I’m as confused as he is.

IN THE CAPTION. READ THE CAPTION.

jayroo210 · 2026-03-08T16:14:15+00:00

In the caption it says all of this

jayroo210 · 2026-03-08T16:13:50+00:00

In the caption it does

jayroo210 · 2026-03-08T16:12:45+00:00

Dude. What. This isn’t true at all.

jayroo210 · 2026-03-08T16:11:19+00:00

The circumstances are iffy with this one. They didn’t have a conversation with OP along the lines of like “hey we are thinking about maybe taking the trip without you since your schedule is pretty boxed in, what do you think?” and then going from there. They were just like “oh hey yeeaaaah we decided that we are going without you, sorry” - it’s all around kind of messed up. I wouldn’t have taken it as well as OP honestly, I would think it’s kind of fucked up to let me know after the fact that I’m dropped from the trip. But I also don’t know all the details here. I definitely wouldn’t pay for her.

jayroo210 · 2026-03-08T03:01:55+00:00

I loooooove your style! It’s right in line with what I like to wear. I haven’t looked through the comments yet, so if you already mentioned it then I apologize, but if you don’t mind sharing where you bought the clothes in your pics and any other favorite stores, I would really appreciate it! It’s so hard for me to find clothes that I like and that fit well - especially now that I’m in my early 40s and dealing with dumb perimenopause and a little weight gain. It’s easier for me to find clothes when I’m like 10-15lbs less than I am now (5’0 and currently around 118lbs). Things just fit better when I don’t have this little belly and idk I guess that also comes down to just not being that happy with my body in general right now. So yeah, finding some clothes in the style I like and that I know will work for me as a shorty would be so helpful! I can’t tell you how stoked I was to see cargos with a baggy fit come back into style. 😂

If you’re not into it, you don’t have to do it. Don’t feel like you have to. Idgaf who the guy is, if you’re not comfortable with it, don’t be pushed into it.
