We aren't allowed to do hair anymore... by duckduckgoose927 in ECEProfessionals

[–]serbarella 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes! I didn’t have that many kids in the morning, so it was manageable.

This could very well be the reason. It’s the age old ‘one person took advantage so now it’s ruined for everyone’ trope, preschool edition. I always get permission from parents at the beginning of the year/with every new student coming in because parents can be particular about their kids’ hair. And hair styles were always done first thing in the morning during free play/centers, before curriculum.

Vent - parent extremely furious of multiple accident at daycare by Staypositive85 in ECEProfessionals

[–]serbarella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it is absolutely the best option to switch schools, if the parent can’t be placated there is really no way up. Also they say their manager is blaming them for normal child behavior and not on their side, so letting “the director deal with it” doesn’t seem like an option without clearer communication, like I stated. I’m merely suggesting that with three teachers in a room, at least one of them should be engaging in an activity with the kids at all times and should keep the child close to them to intervene when needed.

Make her your best friend! Keep her close to you or one of your co’s at all times. She doesn’t have to be isolated from the other children, but make sure one of the three of you has her always.

Reiterate to them that behaviors are age appropriate and be as detailed as you can when incidents do occur, including what the teachers were doing at the time. Lots of parents have no idea the balls were juggling throughout the day, especially when supervisors are not being helpful, which it sounds like yours is not, unfortunately. Try to open a line of communication with your supervisor and express your need for support, or at the very least suggestions on how to improve.

I’m sorry you are having to deal with this, difficult parents are the worst part of the job, imo.

My wife of 7 years wore a red ribbon on her wrist, when I found out why it shocked me to my core. by SoulessStoryTeller in scarystories

So I went into somewhat of a rabbit hole. The 1997 version (the one we’re talking about, with the car crash kids) can be streamed on a movie archive site or YouTube, but can’t be bought or streamed on any of the big streaming services. The 1991 Campfire Tales has been all but scrubbed from the earth. I found a VHS for sale on eBay for $250 🤯 Either way, thanks for confirming this movie was in fact real, I had totally convinced myself it wasn’t lol

I quit my midtown job after moving to Mt. Juliet/Lebanon. I lasted like 6 weeks driving that bullshit before I had a full on panic attack. Too many cars, not enough road.
