Journal 3

Outside items- I would explain to the family that even though there are no children in their childs class that are allergic to nuts some children can have allergic reaction just by these items being inside the facility. I would ask the family would they like for the facility to make the cookies for the party so that they will meet the policies and prodceures of the facility or suggest that they look on the iternet for cookies that children can eat that are highly allergic to nuts and purchase those items because the facility also has a policy all foods must be store bought. A teachers request-I would suggest that the employee go and talk to her co-workers and explain to them her situation and grt their opinion on how they feel about getting off every friday at 3:30. If her co-workers are fine with it then the director is fine with it but we will al meet to discuss the situation. ( The director does not always have to solve the problem). If the situation can not be resolve without the dierctor(ledocia) I will suggest that she take some vacation time(A week or two a sub can fill in during that time) to be with her father and also take that time to see if she can fine alternative care for her father on the days that the co-workers do not want to give up the early shift.Lesson plans-I would meet with both teacher's and suggest that the teacher the took the other teachers plans return those plans to that teacher and suggest that they work together to help the teacher create a plan for her classroom. Parent Situation- I would ease the situation by first apologizing to the parent for the situation that happen to his child. I would then explain to him that situations like this happens in a child care facility and that does not mean that we don't care about the safety of his child. i would assure that parent that i will try to be a little more observant in the classroom but, also explain to him just like i am having this conversation with you now the children are safe, but i can't see everything they are doing at this time!!!!!!
