For them to keep my child safe

For them to treat my child fairly

For them to show my child kindness and empathy

[Rachel Sowle]

as a parent whos children are in care, the 3 things i feel and support new parents on most is

1: is my child safe here/with this person?

2: will my child learn things i dont want them introduced to yet from other kids? (this is a big problem in public systems)

3: can i communicate effectively if anything comes up.

each of these questions stems from a fear

1: childs safety. every parent eventually reads about a nursery or school horror story and it can add stress to an already scary new thing.

2: some families have a religion or belief that is very important or a child being exposed to something potentially harmful or scary from another student are all things that are harder to control in a classroom. if these things are of value to the family, it can be a unique anxiety.

3: no parent wants to be lied to about their child. if the parent feels like the care-ers arent fully communicating with they may have a harder time being able to rely on us for support or be scared to inform us of anything going on that may effect the child while in care.
