    1) I would want my care giver to protect me, and as the name implies to take care of me by supplying all my needs wants and desires. And most of all to love me.

    2) If I dropped my kid of at a day care I would fear that they would not care and cherish my child as much as I would.

    Accept my child as he/she is. Get to know his/her temperament, likes and dislikes. Teach her how to get along with peers (respect while having fun).

    Fears include unfortunate accidents that could have been avoided or prevented. My child feeling like he/she doesn’t belong. Boredom, lack of excitement and wonder.

    I would want open communication, knowing my child is being nurtured and cared for, and a safe environment.

    If I were the parent to a child in care, I would want to be informed immediately of any incident that occurs while being under their care, I would also like to be updated on an new progress they see with my child, and last main thing id like to know is that everything within the care facility is up to date including any safety things and making sure any personal info that need to be on file is properly updated and kept.

    If you were the parent of a young child, what three things would you want most from your childs provider?

    1. I would hope that the provider would help grow the development of my child as much as possible.
    2. I would like the provider to give them attention and positive reinforcement.
    3. I would lastly like the provider to communicate with my child.

    What are three fears you might have when leaving your child in someone else’s care?

    1. I would be worried that my child isn’t getting the same amount of attention as the rest of the children.
    2. I would worry that they aren’t getting a good amount of interaction with the other students and teachers.
    3. Lastly I would fear that something might happen to my child when they aren’t in my care.

    If I were the parent of a young child, the three things I would want most from my child’s provider would be:

    1. Open and Honest Communication: I would want regular updates on my child’s development, behavior, and well-being, along with the ability to communicate easily if there were any concerns.

    2. Safety and Comfort: I would want to know that my child is in a safe, secure environment with caring, responsive adults who make my child feel comfortable and loved.

    3. Developmentally Appropriate Activities: I would want to see that my child is engaged in learning experiences that support their growth, both academically and socially, in a way that aligns with their individual needs and interests.

    As for fears, three common worries I might have when leaving my child in someone else’s care are:

    1. Safety Concerns: Whether my child will be physically safe and whether the caregiver is adequately prepared for emergencies.

    2. Emotional Well-being: Whether my child will feel cared for and emotionally supported, and how they will cope with separation from me.

    3. Inconsistent or Poor Care: Worries about whether my child will receive proper attention and guidance or whether there will be inconsistency in caregiving practices.

    These concerns highlight the importance of strong, trusting relationships between parents and providers, as well as transparent communication and safe, nurturing care environments.

    As a parent of a young child, I would prioritize transparency, open communication, and a strong dedication to my child’s well-being and success from their caregiver. My biggest concerns would be that the caregiver might not protect my child in the same way I would, that they may not be fully honest with me, or that they might not always act in my child’s best interests.

    I would want my child’s caregiver to be able to provide a safe space, pay attention to my child, and be able to protect if needed. I would be afraid of my child being neglected at the facility, culture disrespected, and if my child got injured and wasn’t protected.
