Daycare Vs Day Service
In response to the comments about the Day-Away Program, I feel the one we have in our community is more than "daycare". They provide activities and fieldtrips that these individuals would otherwise never be able to participate in. Parents and families are working all too much these days and I'm sure they don't have the time or resources to provide the things that this particular center can. It's also a way for all age groups to interact with one another and to help and learn from one another. They also have the resources to point parents, families and caregivers to other services their loved ones may need..
I'm well aware that some centers are more like "daycares". I wonder what the criteria is for running a Day Service, and if they are subject

    One of the ways that I help encourage the parents to get involved with the Center and staff is by sending reminders home about when there will be a parent meeting, open house, or resource fair. These reminders are great for the parents to have so they remember the date and time of the event. By giving the parent the reminder it gives me a chance to also talk to them about what is going to be happening at the event, that way they understand the whole story and I get to keep that communication open between us. Having the parents come in to the events is great, it allows them to see the people that interact with their…

    Operating an in-home daycare can be an ideal situation for those who enjoy spending time with children and who may also have preschool age kids of their own. To operate an in-home daycare, providers are required to obtain a license, undergo inspections and submit immunization records to state licensing agencies.

    Competency Statement

    To promote involvement and positive relationships with families and communities I believe that an open door policy is essential to have. I would do this by talking with the parents every day at drop off and pick up time. During the morning drop off time I would be able to find out how the previous afternoon went, if I wasn't there to see it myself, and how the child slept the previous night. I could also find out whether or not the child ate breakfast. During afternoon pick up time I would be able to tell the parent how the child's day went. I would also keep daily sheets for each child that would include bathroom breaks, what and how much the child ate throughout the day, as well as any concerns or questions I might have about the child. Another way I would keep the open door policy is by sending home a weekly newsletter informing the parents of what would be going on that week in the classroom. I would encourage parents to call the center or stop by to see how things are going for the child. I know that when parents are working they, often times, wonder about the child's day. By calling or stopping by they are able to peek in on the child and get updates are how the day is going. I would also encourage parents to attend any special event that the child is apart of, such as Christmas programs. The parents would, also, be more than welcome to have lunch with the child on his or her birthday if they are available to do so. I believe that, as a teacher, it is important to be the support system for the child while he or she is at school and while the parents are away at work. If the parents are working on something, such as using manners or potty training, I would be more than willing to help them by reinforcing that task while the child is at school. It is very important for both the child and the parents to have consistency in their daily routine. I believe that by…

    The Daycare Generation

    • 2015 Words

    For centuries we have seen our family unit only one way; with the father going off to work, and the mother staying home with the children. All the way back to the beginning of humans it has been this way. Lately however, this is all changing. With women 's lib came the "new woman". She wants to do everything a man can do including having a career. The only problem is, there is no one to stay home to raise the children if mom goes off to work. The need for daycare has risen sharply as more moms are choosing to work rather than stay home. As a result, the family unit is growing apart. According to the National Association of Child Care Resource and Referral Agency, over 20 million children ages 0-12 are in full time child care this year in the United States. Many of our children are now spending most of the day away from their home and family, and because of this, are not able to experience the values of close family bonds that our grandparents and great-grandparents had. If we wish to preserve our family ties and bonds, we should take steps toward bringing the family unit back together. The first step should encourage families to let children stay home with mom when they are young, and not put them in a daycare.…
