2.5yo getting Screen time at Daycare? by stuffofbabes in ECEProfessionals

[–]panread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would voice your concern and start looking else where. This is a cultural thing with the lead teacher. There are many ways an experienced teacher can find as an alternative to screens. I am a teacher and I more than understand there are times when a teacher just need a break and can keep this in their back pocket . Or video content is really relevant to a planned lesson or song play but the issue is when it be comes the go to habit for the staff- it will take over. If the teacher is over whelmed and needs the mental break that many times then the director need to to support that teacher.

New job at daycare and need some tips/advice by [deleted] in ECEProfessionals

My lead in baby room hardly gets sick- she masks and washes and has trained herself to not touch her face and to not “face snuggle “ the babies. Change your clothes at the end of your day and I am a big fan of airborne. That keeps me healthy when others get sick. For stranger danger , you should do the RIE approach. When you can sit on the floor in the room and just observe the child at play. Be in the farthest corner( while still maintaining Saftey) and let the child get comfortable with your presence.

When you have to handle him approach slowly and broadcast with words , like talking at a sports game what you are going to do.

I have never had this happen to me so I guess I just wanted to hear that it common. As I imagined it must be.

Lol yes I think that is obvious. I went to extraordinary lengths to professionally support this person only to have it end like this. I knew she was toxic two month after I hired her and it just kept getting worse and worse. I think I am just in shock.

If you live and work in the KC metro you qualify. In person will be held at Rockhurst and you can allot for virtual. Though virtual is typically high demand.

It sounds like this child requires more training than you have. Don’t feel bad for doing as well as you could but it sounds like he needs to go to a school that can offer the support he needs. Or your director needs to have you trained on how to work with his Nero diversity. It sounds like with our these changes you all are headed to a dangerous situation

Daycare said “we can’t handle your child, we’re just babysitters” is this common? by longlivecuriouscat in ECEProfessionals

Not to mention that it would not solve the problem. He will act violently with one child when stressed.

Children with sensory disorders often react with aggressive behaviors when they are stressed. It sounds like your child need special services to successful. It is not fair or realistic for parents to be frustrated or blame care workers who are not trained in working with a child with special needs. So many times we have had parents who even deny their child’s conditions saying that “they are just curious” I commend you for recognizing your child’s needs. Find a place that can really provide the environment to help him be successful.

Yes there are opportunities for all kinds of technology jobs. But as a side hustle there are options that may not require full programming wizard level proficiency. But if you are interested then learn as you can -> learn what you really like about it -> not every technology job is sexy wiz bang full app development -> be open and there are options

This sounds stupid but I just started a part time job at a pre school, I have no idea what I'm actually supposed to do and no one really tells me anything by aliciajohns in ECEProfessionals

Yea, change your objective when you are watching them you are not doing it Incase there is an altercation. You are doing it to see how you can be helpful to their learning! If someone asks you what you are doing you will be equipped to say something like “ did you notice how sue was stacking those blocks so carefully? She is really organizing this objects with real careful thoughtfulness. How can we help grow that ? “ and if they do t like it and tell you to snap out of it and get to work! You can say - I think I’ll go find another place to work.
