Kimberly replied to LittleMonkeysMom's discussion Update on My Job Situation at the Preschool"Good for you for standing up when you saw something (a lot) wrong! It's a shame the behavior of the other employees won't change to benefit the school and children. Good luck to you and your kids in finding a nurturing learning…"
LittleMonkeysMom replied to LittleMonkeysMom's discussion Update on My Job Situation at the Preschool"On a side note I also would suggest for moms and/or dads to trust their instincts. I had a not-so-good feeling about this place when we first toured it but it was our only option so I went with it."
LittleMonkeysMom replied to Stacy Fournier's discussion When did your child stop taking naps?"William stopped his morning nap around age 2 but his afternoon nap only just ended a few weeks ago and he just turned 4. The struggle to get him to nap was not worth it anymore. I've tried quiet time and it worked for exactly one day.
It's…"

Back in December I was looking for some direction on my job situation at a preschool where I was witness to some neglect as well as questionable behavior on the part of my immediate supervisor.Long story short the situation was reported and I was not given any warning that the director was called and advised of an "anonymous" letter detailing problems within her school. I was called into her office and questioned. Being blindsided I ultimately I admitted to discussing my concerns outside of the…See More

LittleMonkeysMom replied to LittleMonkeysMom's discussion I Work at a Childcare/School and Need Some Advice About What to Do"All employees must sign the form explaining your duty to report abuse and that it is now a felony to not do so. My thought on that is that whats happening really isn't abusive. The children are fed, clean, played with and do get attention BUT…"
Barbara Paredes replied to LittleMonkeysMom's discussion I Work at a Childcare/School and Need Some Advice About What to Do"I would report what you are seeing. Try and put yourself in the position of those parents and if your child was being treated this way would you want to know? I would not go to the parents themselves. Maybe try the Department of Children and…"

LittleMonkeysMom replied to Stacy Fournier's discussion A dad-free play center has community members outraged"I think we need more information as to exactly why they made this decision before we jump the gun and think that it's related to child molesters. Women can molest children as well. It's more rare but it happens. It looks like the business…"
LittleMonkeysMom replied to Stacy Fournier's discussion A dad-free play center has community members outraged"There wasn't a lot of info available in the article but I have to wonder if the mothers and caregivers are able to uncover their faces and maybe dress in active-type clothes that their religion prohibits around men that are not family members?…"

Hey!
First off, what adorable children! They look so delightful! :) Anyway thanks for responding to my post about biting. I would love to get more information about William and use you as a source in my story. If you are willing to help out with this, may I have your contact information (email, phone) to contact you about the story?
I would ideally send you an email with more questions about your toddler and the biting situation. :) I would love to get both sides (one mother having the problem and one mother who might have some suggestions (aka you, since you've been through this stage), you know?)
Thanks! If you have any questions you can email me amandalr@ufl.edu or message me through Gainesville Moms.
