Should i say something to the lady at my sons daycare?

SAY SOMETHING DONT LET IT SLIDE...

I would nicely say something unless you are ready to find a new daycare.

Tell the person in charge that you expect to be told on the day of an incident what occured and how the situation was handled. Yes, there are a lot of kids in daycare, but there has to be some account of what is occuring. It might have been inflicted by another kid. Not really a huge deal, but if you know then you aren't making up even worse stories in your head. Bumps and bruises will happen no matter where your child is and sometimes no one is really going to be sure where they came from, but at the least your provider should say "Hey...little Billy has an ouchy... not sure what happened, but it was during playtime. He did/didn't cry and we did blah, blah, blah to take care of the problem."

Good luck!

I would definitely say something to the owner. I would tell them everything you have posted here. Who knows how it happened, maybe someone did pinch him, or maybe he fell but regardless someone there should be aware of it. when you ask what happened to your child someone should have an answer for you. They should not be blowing you off!!! I would especially make sure I said something if it has been swollen for two days. If the owner doesn't have anything to say about it I would mention three little words.... Better Business Bureau. That should spark some interest in them finding out what is going on inside their day care facility. Good Luck :)

Let it go. Listen when you are a daycare provider and you are watching 6 children children tend to misbehave and sometimes get a little out of control and acidents happen. She may have thought that the accident under his eye happened when he fell but maybe it was when your son may have took away a toy from another little boy and he pinched him and the daycare provider may have thought that they were arguing over the toy and as a result your son was crying. These things happen often. So I wouldn't get all suspicious about it unless you have that gut feeling that something is wrong. Let it go but keep a closer eye.

Call the owner/director of the daycare and ask her to look into it. Start by complementing the care your child usually gets and tell her you realize this may be an isolated incident, but that you do need to know what happened and the worker was way too vague. If she cares about her license, she'll take care of it. If not, call your local social services office and file a complaint.

Good luck!

I would definitely agree with the advice about taking a photo. Keep track of what you are seeing. It may be something very innocent like another baby pinching the baby or something more sinister.

If your daycare provider is worthwhile, they will investigate. They have to. It's the law.

After talking with them, if this continues, you have the right to report this to the local state licensing authority and they will investigate.

The fact that the morning teacher just blew it off would really make me wary of the facility. A child becoming injured in their care should be very disconcerting to them. Certainly speak to the manager/owner! You never know there could be other complaints on the teacher!

Take Care. :o)

First of all, I would make this situation clear to the director of the day care. It's very easy for people to point fingers at others, or feign no knowledge of situation. Make it clear you'd like an accident report filled out next time something happens, and take him to the pediatrician for a check. Hope all is well!

first take a picture of the hurt. quite a few. Then of course ask. They probably keep a log of each teachers or aids shift. Ask to read them. You have a right to know if some other child did the damage or what. It could also be a bite from some odd spider. who knows find out. something happened and by trying to brush you off says to me its not to their benefit.I owned elder care homes, now I'm retired, but the children's day cares are licensed. Ask for the phone number oif the agency that licenses them. /They have no right to shine you off.

Absolutely say something. This is your child and he could be at risk. If anything similar happens a second time, find a new daycare provider. You can't put a child at risk in an unsafe environment.

take a picture and always say something because the teachers are usually alone with the kids no telling if it was them out of anger or another kid and the teacher did not see but it is better to be safe then sorry so speak up.
