Switching Daycares

Finding someone to take care of your child during the day can be a tough decision, and you will most likely be deciding between a daycare center and home daycare. Are you aware of what the major differences are between these two options? By understanding the differences, you can decide which one is best for your child’s needs.

This change can also means a physical transition because the child or young person may also have to deal with going to a new school, and establishing new network of friends. If well managed this can be positive transition. If the child is moved from an unstable, neglected home to a stable, warm and loving one, it can have a good emotional effect and improve their sense of security and self worth.

The three hardest transitions for a young child are nap time, drop-off time and departure. These are the hardest because they make the child completely shift from one activity to another. Some children do not like to leave the activity they were doing to do something completely different. One example of how to ease nap time is to do a calm activity beforehand. It is important to not do something completely active before nap time because it will make the children not want to sleep. It will also make the transition easier because the child will not be going from one extreme to another. To make drop-off time easier I will make each child feel welcomed and gain his or her trust. Children sometimes have a hard time being separated from their parents

Choosing between center-based day care and home-based day care can be a very harrowing experience for a parent.

Last week we met as a team to create a transition plan for two children to return to their father’s care due to the father obtaining and maintaining housing, employment, and sobriety over the past ten months. The children were present at part of the meeting and contributed their thoughts about returning home with their father. The children then expressed being excited to be able to move home with their father. The transition was set up to have the children in their father’s care on October 14th so that the children would start their new school following fall break. I met with the father this week on Wednesday and found out that the father had quit his job on Tuesday. As we talked the father stated that his supervisor was being disrespectful Monday morning and continued to be disrespectful throughout the day and the father was unable to tolerate the disrespect any longer so he did not return to work on Tuesday resulting in a no call no show. I provided the client with several employment leads to local businesses and encouraged him to apply quickly. I notified the FCM

30 percent of Early Childhood educators change or leave the field completely every year. Think of that percentage, 30 percent altogether. That is a pretty large number to factor in annually. “It is estimated that staff turnover can cost, at a MINIMUM $3,000 for each lost employee.” (Page 200) Not only is it hard on the company and director when employees turn over, but it also becomes hard on the children and families at the childcare center because they have created a personal relationship with the employee! As most people know, there has always been a major factor that plays into the childcare field and that is low wages and poor benefits. Whether you are a teacher or a director, you really have to have passion for the field of childcare

Throughout time, raising children has never been a walk in the park, even with the knowledge we have today on proper child rearing and development, there are still challenges.

I completely agree with you and I also used the comparison between a university and a day care center as one of my examples because honestly, it' very accurate. The way the new generations of children are being raised is way too "sweet" because they don't learn about the harsh realities of the real world. For many years, college is viewed as one of life's great hardships. It's meant to be harsh on you, and you will probably hate some parts of it but you can't hide from it, you have to face the reality. You can't just expect a perfect world full of things only you want to hear, there are always going to be so called "haters" because it's our human nature to argue. Not all minds think alike and this is what makes us unique, and having someone
