Choosing a Daycare Center for your child that is both FUN and SAFE. 5 tips to relieve a first-time parent’s worries!

When entrusting the local daycare center, nursery or playgroup with your precious child, it is understandable that parents may be concerned. A parent can be worried that their child will not receive the same love, care, and attention that they receive at home. A parent might also be concerned with the safety of the daycare’s play equipment and resting facilities.
Although it is normal to be nervous, with some tips in what to look out for when selecting a daycare center a parent can entrust their child in the daycare’s care without real reason for concern.
1. Hygiene –
There are usually many children who play, eat and sleep in the daycare center, for many hours a day. This can lead to the spreading of many germs. Especially as the children are usually too young to be able to practice proper hygiene and are unable to wash their hands with soap, on their own. A parent should inquire as to what the daycare’s cleanliness schedule is. Do they use disposable liners on the changing tables? Do they wash the children’s hands with soap before they eat? Do they disinfect the tables, chairs and toys periodically? These are important question to look out for when inspecting the center.
2. Separation Anxiety –
It is both normal and accepted for children to have a hard time being away from their parents for the first time. A parent understands that it is necessary and healthy for the child to develop independence. However, the parent does not want the child to cry for the six hours that he/she is left alone. Find out what their procedure is in helping the children “break-in” to the new schedule. Do they let the children cry? Do they have treats they provide? Do they call the parents for assistance?
3. Toy and Furniture Safety-
It is a parent’s primary concern that their child be safe and healthy at all times. While the child is away they spend many hours a day playing with toys. There are many toys that can be dangerous or hazardous for young children. A parent should inspect the play center to ensure that there are no toys with small pieces that can pose as a choking hazard and all corners should be rounded off or padded. There are many companies such as Jonti-craft who make all their toys and furniture kid-friendly. For example: Their hinges run straight down the doors so it can’t pinch fingers. There is also a company Children’s Factory who makes hundreds of soft play items and furniture to provide children with safe playing time.
4. Discipline –
The discipline policy of the daycare center might be a concern to a parent. No loving parent wants their child to be disciplined in a harsher manner than necessary. Although the child might be very well-behaved, situations might arise during the day that requires discipline. Find out what their policy is. Do they hit the children? Do they withhold privileges? Are the children afraid of the staff? Select a warm, caring facility that will discipline with love and not out of anger.
5. Curriculum –
All children should begin to receive their education from an early age. Even infants will develop physically and cognitively if given the appropriate toys. Find out if the center provides educational toys for the children that will benefit their growth and development. There are many toy manufacturers such as Melissa and Doug who make great quality toys that are specially designed to promote children’s development at all stages. The child should constantly be challenged to strive and grow with the toys, art supplies, books and puzzles that the center provides.
Of course, the parent should constantly communicate with the center to make sure their child is well-adjusted and happy, but with a bit of pre-planning you can feel confident as you wave goodbye to your child on their first day away from home.

Single Parent Families and Child Abuse – The Best Way to Prevent It
Parenting runs along two continuums: abusive and nurturing. One can equate higher incidence of nurturing with less incidence of abuse because the two behaviors are mutually exclusive. In nurturing single parent families, children receive support, have clear boundaries, and live under appropriate expectations. In abusive single parent families, too much may be expected from the children.

Is Your Child Safe in a Daycare Center?
Daycare centers are meant to provide children with time to enjoy themselves and learn at the same time. It is therefore important that all the materials used within the daycare center are safe. Daycare centers are usually painted with pretty and eye-catching colors and are decorated with modern style and designs to help stimulate the kids into interact with their surroundings. This is part of learning programs for kids and they will benefit from such stimulating surroundings, both mentally and emotionally. There are bulleting boards, activity chairs and tables, sleeping cots, safety mats, change stations, and other things that not only serve the needs of the children but also provide them with endless hours of fun and learning. But above their function as learning tools for children, these items must be safe and not pose health and injury hazards to the kids while they are inside the daycare center.
Exploration and doing experiments are part of the learning process of children. They explore their surroundings and by themselves, can be too adventurous for their own good. One way for them to know and recognize the different things that they encounter is to put them inside their mouths. For this reason, all items used by the children must be made of non-toxic materials. Additionally, they should be in such a size that the children will not choke on them. The daycare center management must make sure that the childrens toys are clean and should not be made of materials that can easily get dirty such as furry toys, which could pose a threat especially to children with asthma. Children must be grouped according to their age. This will facilitate identifying which toys or items are appropriate for their group, as well as help determine which type of activities match their age group. Large items such as bookcases must be made of durable materials. They should be secure properly and not tend to tip over with the slightest push.
The building where the daycare center is located must have passed inspection regarding the presence of dangerous substances such as lead, asbestos and radon. There should be no toxic chemicals such as cleaning liquids and pest killers that children could access. Medicines should be placed out of their reach and the staff should know how to protect children from injuries and possible illness. The should also have knowledge about first aid and CPR. Parents should make sure that information about poison control is posted conspicuously in the daycare center, and that they have an emergency plan for accidents involving the children, and other scenarios such as fire, flood, tornado, earthquake, blizzard or even a possible terrorist attack in the vicinity of the center.
The childrens safety should be a primary concern for everyone in the daycare center. There are many other health and safety concerns that parents and the management of the daycare center should pay much attention to. Although parents implicitly trust the center when they leave their kids there, they should not be complacent; rather they should proactively cooperate with the daycare center for the benefit of their children.

Safe Playground Equipment Guidelines
Playgrounds and outdoor playground equipment can offer your child enjoyment, fresh air, and exercise, but they can also pose some safety hazards. Faulty equipment, improper surfaces, and careless behavior are just a few of the dangers that cause children on playgrounds to visit hospital emergency departments. To ensure that your children have the safest playground environment possible, follow these guidelines.
• In the United States, a child is injured on a playground every 2 1/2 minutes.
• More than 200,000 children each year are treated in emergency departments for playground-related injuries.
• More than 75% of playground injuries occur on a public playground.
• Most playground injuries involve falls, and over half of the time the child’s head and face is hurt.
• Most of these injuries are preventable with proper supervision and safer playground equipment and design.
You can make the playground a place that’s entertaining and safe for your children by checking equipment for potential hazards and following some simple safety guidelines. In addition, teaching your kids how to play safely is important: if they know the rules of the playground, it’s less likely they’ll become injured.
Safety Guidelines
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention funds the National Program for Playground Safety (NPPS), which works to prevent playground-related injuries by establishing detailed guidelines for safe playgrounds. According to the NPPS, the most important factors in evaluating the safety of any playground are surface, design and spacing, equipment installation, and maintenance.
The following types of equipment are not meant for safe playgrounds:
• animal figure swings
• glider swings that hold more than one child at a time
• swinging ropes that can fray, unravel, or form a noose (any kind of rope attached to play equipment poses a strangulation hazard, so never let your child tie jump ropes or leashes onto the equipment)
• exercise rings (as used in gymnastics) and trapeze bars
• Monkey bars: although people use the terms monkey bars, jungle gyms, and climbing equipment interchangeably, actual monkey bars are a specific type of climbing equipment with interior bars onto which a child may fall from a height greater than 18 inches. In the early 1980s, the CPSC stated that monkey bars were unsuitable for playgrounds.
• trampolines: these are never appropriate for safe playgrounds

Adult Day Care Center – Leaving Your Elders In Safe Hands
Our elderly parents very often need our support to help them to settle in their retired lives. While trying to find a solution to the issue, we may come across all types of services that are available for taking care of senior citizens. Due to your preoccupation with a job and having your own family to look after, you may not be able to provide them support. In such a case, adult day care can prove to be a blessing for many. Adult day care is beneficial to those senior citizens who need the company of people during daytime.
However, when you decide to utilize the services of an adult day care center for your elderly mother or father, ensure that they are also involved in the decision – making. The thought of adult day care center is very upsetting for an elderly parent, because it gives them a feeling of being neglected , or being treated as an infant who needs looking after. It is best to avoid using the phrase ‘adult day care’ while making the suggestion, as the elderly are sensitive people and may think you are putting them away, someplace.
There may be church programs in your local parish that the senior citizens can attend to pass their time rewardingly, and many prefer to do so. The other option is, of course, a day care center where they can enjoy the company of other like minded people. The ideal way to find a suitable adult day care center is to conduct a tour along with your elderly parent to find out what options exist locally, and make the choice together. You may, however want to get some prior information regarding the adult day care center by making enquiries with them. Some of the pertinent questions could be:
• Is transportation facility available at the assisted care facilities? Does that facility continue to operate all day? This is needed so that your parent does not get stranded at the facility for lack of transportation.
• Do they have qualified medical personnel to attend to the elderly, in case there is any kind of medical emergency?
• Is there an arrangement for food and beverages for a day-long stay? Are the food services sensitive to diet restrictions prescribed by the doctor? This would be a pertinent question if your parent is a diabetic and has to follow a restricted diet.
• How many elders are present at the care center on any given day? Too few would imply that the center is not providing good service and too many would mean lack of attention for your parent in the large crowd.
• What are the costs involved?
The activities and entertainment provided for the elderly at the adult day care center are an incentive for them to go there. For example, during the football season, if the center provides a place for all the men to gather and cheer for the game, it will be more enjoyable for your dad rather than being alone in the apartment watching the game. If the adult day care center has a variety of activities like card games or puzzles that appeal to everyone, then it will be a fun place for your parent to pass their time.
Arranging for a good adult day care center to take care of your elderly father or mother takes a load off your mind. Before making a decision to select the center for your parent, it would be a good idea to get a feel of the place by talking to the staff and spending some time yourself to gauge the atmosphere. This way, you are sure that your parent is well taken care of and passing the time in a healthy and friendly environment. They will get to know more people and generally enjoy the time spent at the center. This will prove to be invigorating for them and they will eat and sleep better, thus solving a number of problems associated with old age.
