    I believe the most challenging aspect about this particular position is investigating a facility due to the allegations reported and properly documenting. When investigating a facility, one must be aware of their surroundings and properly multi-task because an investigation may involve talking to multiple individuals while receiving documents and presenting presenting facts. The main focus is to secure the child in that particular environment, by following all policies and procedures of the agency. This appeal to me because I've had a personal experience of child care negligence. When my daughter was younger she attended at child care facility that I trust and believe would properly care for my child. One day, I stopped by to check on her…

    I believe the purpose of education is to teach my students and ready them for the future and whatever comes with it. I want to start my students off with an education that they can build on for the rest of their lives. I believe my main role is to socialize the children and slowly acclimate them to the school environment, while teaching them through their five senses. School readiness and a love of learning plays a huge part in helping ensure future success. I aim to make the children feel equally important as the other by having them cooperate and work as one big team. I will provide an environment for the children to feel welcomed and comfortable like it is their second home, so they don’t feel shy and unwilling to partake in the various activities in class. I will also introduce the students to our daily routines so they can be more comfortable, because if they have a set schedule everyday the transition between activities is smooth. Parents will have full access to join us with the fun and educational things we do in class and to help at anytime with art projects, nature walks, and many more enriching activities.…

    There has been research that has found positive effects of day-care on children’s social and cognitive development and suggests that perhaps child-care centers encourage more social interaction than the environment of a home-reared child. There may be more stimulation in day-care and more communication and sharing to be learned, therefore enhancing these abilities of the children who attend them (Peisner-Feinberg et al. 2001). Evidence shows that a good preschool education is beneficial to young children. Children who attend preschool have a head start when they begin elementary school having learned basic concepts in a preschool center. Some of the negative effects a child may experience while attending a child care center include high child to adult ratios, insufficient materials and equipment, staff with inadequate training and experience, and caregiver burnout. There are truly some wonderful and caregivers and daycares out there. Choosing the best one is a very…

    While observing the La Petite Academy where my nephew goes to class, I found the environment very encouraging for children. One thing I noticed upon arrival to the daycare is that there is keypad that only parents and staff have the codes to, which allows the facility to be safe. There are numerous animals, letters, and numbers on the walls, along with the children artwork. Upon arrival, I saw that they had each student wash their hands before starting their work. Each room of the daycare was separated by age group allowing them to learn at their level.…

    Sophie is currently enrolled in family day care but her parents are considering a change. An alternative to family day care could be long day care. Long day care is a more suitable option rather than prep or kindergarten. Long day care centres, also known as centre based care, can be located on their own grounds and are often in a busy situated place. Most long day care centres operating hours are 7:00am to 6:00pm but some centres operate longer days and also on weekends. All childcare workers should have a qualification of care. Having your child in a long day care centre will improve the child’s social ability as the child will be interacting with a various amount of other…
