A Photo really is worth 1,000 words

According to small business trend.com, “With Facebook declining in popularity among younger users, more and more businesses are turning to Instagram to reach younger demographics.”

Furthermore, Instagram is one of the top social media sites and is a great way to inspire potential clients. Moreover, marketing your Child Care Business on Instagram is a fun way to build your brand, connect with your parents and gain new clients.

As always, before uploading photos of children, I strongly suggest that you get permission from parents, because some parents do not want photos of their children on social media.

Appropriate Child- Teacher Interactions

Bradley Russle 2

I was recently talking with a Dad of an infant, while he was enrolling his infant in my Child Care center. The Dad asked me the following question: “Do you think it is appropriate for teachers to kiss a child?”

I immediately thought to myself, that is inappropriate behavior in a child care setting. Then I replied: ” No that is not appropriate and I believe that kisses should be saved for mommy, daddy and grandparents.

However, I do believe that caregivers naturally bond with children and it is appropriate to show that you care for a child by giving the child a gentle hug, using a nurturing tone a voice or by  gently rubbing a child’s back that is having difficulty sleeping at nap time.

I shared this post with you to inspire you to be mindful of the child-staff interactions in your Child Care program.  Furthermore, what we (Child Care providers) may think is appropriate; may not be appropriate to a parent.

Also, be sure that you define appropriate Child- Teacher interactions in your classroom handbook or program policies.
