DCG - age 2. Mom is an RN.
DCB has a good amount of accidents at home. Normal for his age, I don't expect abuse, foul play or anything like that.
He has been in my care for 3 months and mom has told me 4 times that he has hit his head which resulted in a bump, an urgent care visit, and/or her giving him tylenol in case DCB gets a headache.
When these incidents happen mom has been great about notifying me at drop off. It's usually something like "hey, DCB and so and so were playing in the yard, DCB fell and hit his head. He has a bump, we did/did not go to urgent care but I wanted to let you know since we usually monitor head bumps for 24 hours in case of vomiting or other symptoms."
I get it. I am the same way with my own kids. DS started pulling up/standing at 6 months...we had our fair share of head bumps and 24 hours of monitoring BUT for my own protection, how would you recommend I document these conversations?
