I would keenly observe the child with any visible signs of abuse or mental torture. Without involving myself directly and investigating personally, I will document a CPS report and follow the WACs accordingly.

If I suspect child abuse or neglect, I would ask for insight and thoughts from my close colleagues about my suspicion as well as bringing it up to the director for another set of eyes on the situation. I would see where to go from there while collecting documentation if my suspicion keeps up. I might also try asking the child some questions one-on-one (such as about any visible bruises or other injury marks— “Uh-oh. What happened?” since it may help with reporting to CPS. I would then follow up with a call to CPS if needed.

If I suspect child abuse and neglect, I would inform my co-teachers, my director, and start doing paperwork to get CPS and other agencies involved. A large part of stopping abuse is reporting it. This is always the first, and most important, step.

If I were to suspect abuse I would tell my supervisor and come up with a plan and report it to child protect services

[Trainer]

Great response, Sarah! Reporting and collaborating with your supervisor are crucial steps in ensuring the child’s safety.

[Rozlynn]

If I suspected child abuse or neglect, I would take the situation very seriously and follow the proper reporting procedures immediately. My first responsibility is to ensure the child’s safety, so I would document any signs or statements the child has made that raise concern, being careful to stay objective and factual. I would not confront the family or make accusations, but instead, I would report my concerns to the appropriate authorities, such as Child Protective Services (CPS), as required by law. As a mandated reporter, it is my legal and ethical duty to report suspicions of abuse or neglect, even if I am not completely certain. Acting quickly and responsibly can help protect the child and potentially prevent further harm.

[Kaedan Jemison]
