Hello everyone , I currently have a Group Family Day Care in the Bronx, NY area and I am currently looking for some advice.
I currently have a client who is always complaining about something in the daycare. It goes from sending me pictures of recent wet diapers, children clothes dirty with paint or some glitter from days activities to even environmental allergies the child will get claiming the child gets them while in care.
Pictures of wet diapers would come in about 35 mins after the children would leave and she would claim the diaper was overflowing . I would demonstrate to her timing of last diaper change , which would be recent , and it would still be a problem.
Recently , the child exhibited a small allergy on the side of his face. While in care the child did not show any signs but 30 mins after they arrive home she send a picture of the child's face side . Both staff and I explained to her the child exhibited no signs of allergies in the daycare . Also we have not tried any new meals or snack recipe for the kids.
I understand these are things that you have to question what happen in daycare , but with her I have the feeling she is always looking for something to complaint about . Not once has she ever said thank you or complemented us on the progress the children have had in daycare .
I know that parent , unfortunately , say thank you for the job childcare providers do , but a simple gesture of appreciation goes a long way.
I guess I would like to know am I overreacting and I should just should relax or Should I speak to the parent and ask if she is not satisfied with the care she can definitely find a care facility that will adjust better to her needs.
sorry for the long post . I appreciate the advice.
