Always observe the kids’ behaviors over time and since they’re young, they probably won’t identify what their emotions are at that moment, but you can notice it and help by listening to them and being attentive.

communicate with coworkers and ask them for help if absolutely needed and if they’re free for a minute

Pray that I’m going to be okay no matter how hard a day it is at work, deep breathing. When in the moment being stressed because of crying, don’t let the kids see that.

spend so much time playing with, speaking to, and listening to the kids. but don’t be afraid to be assertive. they may get upset, and that’s okay, but they will know boundaries and what is okay or not okay if you keep being assertive with them.

single level crib with fitted sheet on mattress and absolutely nothing else, not even a binky

make up a song about healthy habits and it will be more likely for the children to remember it and they will be more excited to do things.

abusive and non-attentive teachers are big worries I have for children’s safety. School shootings are a big thing nowadays as well too.

good components for a learning area would be something comfortable, make sure every student feels welcomed and safe in that space, learning items are accessible.

Observing and documenting how much a child is developing in your classroom will help us as educators build a relationship and connect with our students, so we can see if they are heading in the right direction or wrong direction with development.

i definitely don’t think a ton of screen time is appropriate whether it is at a daycare or at home, for a child age 0-6. there are great educational videos out there for children to watch and (hopefully/maybe) learn from, but keep it a maximum 1 hour a day. i think children learn more with hands on activities and working with their peers rather than watching someone on a video do something.

I would try to understand their reason of why it continues to happen every day, and let them know 20 minutes isn’t *that* long but in a childcare setting, it is quite some time and can interfere with the staff’s schedule and other children in the facility. If it then still happens after constant reminders, I would let the director know and ask what I should do, or if I were the director I would let them know they need to remove their child from our company.
