We’ve been having issues at childcare with one of the kids getting upset, throwing, and hitting other kids. It’s odd because we don’t experience anything to the same extent at home or over the weekends. We’re a bit sussy on the current room and we ran into an educator that left, didn’t have anything lined up, just resigned. Not a good sign.

They’re booked in to go to another centre next year but we might try move them on sooner. Their current room doesn’t have a quiet corner for kids to manage big emotions, there are some kids ours are friends with that don’t seem to be good for them. We know one of the families and they have A Lot going on in their personal lives, unfortunately it seems to be coming out in their child at the centre. And we had to remind our kid they could take naps if they felt like it, their teachers aren’t actively encouraging it anymore or even suggesting it. Our kid took a nap today which seemed to help diffuse things, but that’s only after we reminded them they could do so. We’re going to have a meeting with the centre soon, so it will be really interesting to hear what they have to say
