First I would ask why she is arriving late and if there is anything in our reach that we could do to help her or her child. At the same time I would let her know that there are policies we must follow and that it is important to maintain punctuality when it comes to pick up times. Always maintaining respect and letting them know that we are here to support them.

1. WAC 110-300-0160
Promoting acceptance of diversity.
2. The WACs emphasize the importance of uniqueness. It is necessary to celebrate and accept the difference between all of us and it starts from a young age. Being respectful and inclusive is a great way to make families and children feel welcome. Feeling confident in who they are helps them thrive in and out of the classroom.

1. I wasn’t aware just how many laws and guidelines are in place in order to run an early learning childhood program. The laws are very specific and it is so important that they are followed. As a mom myself, it makes me glad that these laws exist because it creates a safer environment for children and their families.
2. I was surprised to find out that animals and pets are allowed in early learning programs as long as they meet and follow the pet policy set in place. I find this pretty cool because I am an animal lover and I think that by doing it the right way, children learn a lot about the world by learning about animals.
3. I can definitely see how the WACs will influence my day-to-day routine when caring for children because from the start of the day to the end there are standards that must be met. The WACs cover everything from attendance, records, health, learning environment, nutrition, and many other topics. It is essential to keep these guideline in mid all the time to ensure safety and good relationships with he families.
