    I have heard of a new centre in Vic where you can watch a video of what your child did during the day. Frankly I would much rather have a staff member looking after my child and interacting with them than videoing them.

    I could see that webcams would be a problem here. I would often be told at my old childcare centre that they had taken photos of DD, but I never got to see them. I understood that I could not have copies as there were other children in the shots, but to not see them really irked me. Should have brought it up with the director, as I just took what the carer told me and she was one I never got on with. So if photos are an issue in centres, then webcams would be as well.

    Really?? At DS centre, we have to sign a docuemnt at the start of each year with things like whether we agree to allow them to put nappy cream, sunscreen etc on our children, and there is a section about photographs, there are about 5 options that you have to say yes or no to, regarding taking photos of the children and displaying them in the centre, in the print media and on the internet etc.
    There are lots of photos of the children (whos parents have agreed) on display throughout the centre.
