Is this due to negligence on the school's part? Will switching to a new school improve the situation? Or will pulling him out of school for awhile help - but who will make the sacrifice to stay home to care for him meanwhile? I wished I had a choice, and with our second baby on her way, I would also need to consider if this school is suitable to care for her as we may enrol her earlier, and from the way things look now, I am not confident of starting her too early.
With about 14 weeks to go before I pop, I am pretty concerned about how we would arrange child care for both our kids.

I guess it is a matter of luck sometimes. J has been in infantcare since he was 3 months coz i went back to work early. But, so far, he is a happy camper. No doubt there were times he bruised himself, fell ill , bullied and got bullied... We saw it as part and parcel of the choice we made. For us, as long as he was not gravely hurt... we just go with it. Maybe speaking with the school for a start may help? Good luck!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Shermeen. Yup there are ups and downs and also these occurrences for young kids are inevitable. Have yet to decide whether to leave the younger one in infant care. Was just informed that my boy's favorite teacher is leaving the centre this week so perhaps its a sign to look for another school.
DeleteTrust has to be in place. If you couldn't trust the childcare centre or the teachers, you should seriously consider looking for alternative at the soonest possible. Surely small accidents happen, and kid might fell sick every now and then when adjusting to the centre, but the trust is not established, you will not have an ease of mind when your kid is under their care. All the best!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I guess it's the recent incident of his fall, leading to a broken front tooth that made me start thinking, and worrying. Will speak with the school and meanwhile will look out for other childcare options too.
