The Super Seven of
Supervision
You and I work in a world of apple juice and graham crackers, playgrounds and naptimes, time-outs and "I'm sorries," and the magic "do over." But if you fail to provide proper supervision - or if you are even accused of it - you will find yourself yanked suddenly and abruptly into a totally different world where "I'm sorry" doesn't matter and there are no "do overs!" If a child is hurt, it's too late.
Supervision is basic
to the prevention of harm.
Adults who pay attention to and who understand young children's behaviors are in the best position to safeguard their well-being.
The point of proper supervision is to keep children safe from harm.
Safe from physical injury. Safe from emotional or psychological injury (such as bullies or sex play). And to keep you safe from litigation.
Because of the profession you have chosen, it's understood that you do not want children to get hurt or harmed in any way, especially while they are in your care. Some people have the attitude, "Children fall down. Children get hurt. It happens! It's part of being a kid."
It's may be part of being a kid, but it's only part of being a kid when they are at home, not while they are in your care.
Did you know that "Child Care Accidents" is a new area of specialty for attorneys? Just like workman's compensation, bankruptcy, accidents with 18 wheelers, and pharmaceutical lawsuits.
When it is your word against "theirs," you will lose. You need proof. You need to know how to properly supervise children. You need a reputation as a conscientious caregiver.
In the event of a lawsuit, you could be legally labeled as a perpetrator of abuse or neglect against children and that label will follow you for the rest of your life. You will not be allowed to work with children in any capacity - not in child care, public education, private education, health care, nothing. AND you probably will not even be able to accompany your own child on school field trips with his class.
