Parents and Providers Should Work Together

Child care is obviously very important part of family life.  Not only does child care promote your child development but it also strengthens your child’s view of family and their community.  Education and support are just two of the important functions provided by child care providers.

Again, obviously parents want what’s best for their children.  They worry about the wellbeing of their childrne when placing their children in child care.  Here are typical questions parents ask themselves–

Will my child’s provider like my child?

Will she understand my child’s moods?

Will my child be happy at day care?

Parents and child care providers should work together so parents are not so apprehensive.  Providers should understand that working with the parents does not mean they should put up with delinquent behavior!  Discipline is a important parenting tool and child care providers should have the same view about discipline.  However, normally since parents spend the most time with their children, they should be the definitive source of discipline and teachers / child care providers should not feel discouraged when a issue isn’t solved immediately.  Parents and providers need to team together and work to help children succeed and grow up to be the wonderful people God meant them to be!
