That feels very dystopian
came here to say just this, just seeing a feed of your childs interactions at another space is fucking weird. Why goto this logging level? Isnt it just good enough of, yeah they napped well today, and they hit there head, it scared them but we got them calmed and an ice pack just in case.
I feel like this is what helicopter parenting but they have to work so this is what they want and they need to calm down, they dont even monitor the indoor air at this level and that has been shown to be a big contributor of poor mental performance then just being at day care with sun and playing with others.

Modern nannies can't even assassinate 2 kids simultaneously. Pathetic. Kids! Not some Rembo-Terminators.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Agreed on the diaper change one, but the first half is literally what you said with a timestamp. The nap one is important because if they did or didn't nap, you can adjust what you do after

That’s not a very good job of redacting the names. The boxes aren’t fully opaque, I can read the names through them.

yeah but you are pulling their attention for that, logging that is time they are not dealing with children.

I don't really know how I feel to see charting at day cares. I guess it does solve a liability need just as much as charting in nursing homes and hospitals do. But we're not usually even this detailed.
Edit: detailed on this like exact diaper changes. We're actually much much much more detailed on falls. Like holy shit the paperwork for a fall.

We log this information for a whole host of reasons. Many parents sadly don't get the chance to speak to an educator in depth to discuss their kids day, tracking medical needs, etc. A lot of parents don't even look at this, but it's useful to have if it's ever needed.
My only complaint, and this extends to all the genuinely important paper work we have to do is that we never get enough time to be off floor to do it.

How long do you think it takes to log? That would take maybe 5 seconds max unless the ui is horrendous.

And over how many children? So 30 kids 5 seconds each (lets hope they just have to click a button and not add fucking notes to each one) so like 5 min an hour just logging shit they could spend with the parent when they pick them up. God forbid its a real winner of a day and every other child is just walking into walls and tripping all over the place. I am sure they need this dumb shit added to their workload.

SOOO if the educator was, I dont know, forced to talk to them at pick up over the things of the day they could be more looped in to what the parents want and maybe better understand the groups role and abilities for their child. No you are right, this is better.

I can't be completely surprised that Miss Emely has trouble with spelling.

wrote last edited by [email protected]… there’s limits to how many children can be watched by a single caretaker, it’s like 7 in most jurisdictions. So while there’s 30 kids, there’s other caretakers who can watch, or their workload isn’t so bad that 30 seconds to log all kids is gonna be an issue,
You clearly have no experience with this, so why are speaking up?

Talking with parents takes far, far, far longer than logging something on your phone or a tablet. How is this idea not just a significantly worse time-sink?
That's not even getting into the fact that things get forgotten throughout the day - you're absolutely not getting a full report while they're panicking and dealing with 20 other parents while also keeping the kids still there safe.

...do you think they aren't dealing with other children during pickups?

Not even close to right, fed says it can be 10:1 no more then 16:1 sooo that is still minutes out of each hour. And that is if everything is running smooth and children are anything but smooth. And I am speaking up because again I think its dystopian, I would rather the person in charge of my child TALK TO ME, and we can learn what to expect and want from the relationship then them sitting on phones or tablets logging every last thing my child did.
And I must point out that your math is bad, 7x5 isnt 30. If you need precision in your childcare you should strive for it in yourself. -

And just to be clear, you believe that this would take less time away from the other children?
-

you would think they would have all these other workers that can cover while you talk to the parent. Also I would assume that mgmt is out and about more to help at drop off and pickup.
