Oh hun Iz doesn't go to CC so I don't know what usually happens but that sounds odd to me. For a start - using her FOOT to get his attention??? I'm a teacher and I would never do that to a student, completely disrespectful to Aricyn and to you babe.
Also, I would be questioning them about exactly what he had to drink, and why his milk and water was untouched, and if they did give him something, why wasn't the milk and water given to him????? Sounds very odd and I would definately look into it and also maybe look into other centres in the area. HtH from an inexperienced me.
I would say trust your doubts and just look into a few other centres to see if you get a better feeling about them. The foot sounds very... just like a shove it's not very caring or nurturing and i'd question the drinks too. My DS goes to fdc so it is slightly different but i get informed on what and how much he ate of what i provided and even the nappy changes. If you're not happy with your son being cared for in that way look for something that makes you happy.
Well the milk was in the fridge so long that the top of it was a bit frozen, so I had to mush it up a bit, but yeah he drank most of the milk and about a third of the water in the car on the way home...
It sounds like they didn't offer it to him. I went through something similar with Nina's old daycare. I would be contacting other daycares around your area and trying to get him in.
Kick up a fuss mate. In a fair, reasonable, 'no-I'm-not-a-nutter-but-this-is-NOT-good-enough' kind of way. Ask questions and see what they have to say, give them a chance to explain things, but mention reporting them if you're not satisfied with answers they provide. It sounds like they might need a bit of a wake-up call.
It could have just been a bad day at the centre, bad communication, and chaos, but that kind of thing regularly isn't acceptable. Hope it's not as bad as you think, and they have a good and satisfying explanation.
Oh that doesn't sound good at all!! Like Tanstar I don't have any personal CC experiences but that doesn't mean I can't see something pretty wrong with that picture. As if it isn't hard enough for parents (especially mums!) to have their little ones in CC in the first place, to have any doubt at all that they are nutured, cared for & respected just as they should be is awful.
Poor little guy!! I agree with Nelle about making a fuss, it really is unacceptable & even if you get him into another centre the fuss you make now can certainly only benefit other kids in the centre's care. Give Aricyn a hug from me!! (& all the water he can drink lol)
