One of the best ways to share informations is in person during pick up or drop off, observing the child and their abilities, write it on a piece of paper to see if they have improved, praise the children for improvements on growing, tell them we will tell their parents of how great they’re on growing and learning. Letting everyone know we are all proud of growing.

We also do monthly reports- each caregiver has 4 children to report those child as a daily basis, we explain what they are learning today at the daycare and what they are doing at the daycare, monthly report is very important to the parents to know what their children are doing and what they are learning at the daycare, we also contact the parents by phone or in person if we have to.

When i used to be a casual at daycare they used to have monthly report like observing up to 3/4 children everyday, we always needed to write down what they did today even what they ate today, by the end of the month we used to give them to the parents/gardiens. They used to be so helpful to parents and they used to be amazed how their child did throughout the whole month. Telling the parents that their child is developing well in the daycare, it’s always nice to see happy/proud faces and we they told us that we are doing a great job as caregivers.

I like to observe the children on what they like to do the most, how much they have learnt, and how the child is improving, and when i know more about their development and talk to the parent about how much their kid has improved or how they enjoy doing what they learnt when the parents are picking up or dropping off, when the parents find out that their children enjoys daycare they get very happy, it motivates me more to observe kids

While doing art and crafts the children are developing through cognitive practice. “We can draw pictures and share what we did with family members over the weekend” the child likes to show and tell what they made, it is one of the fun ways we can show and tell the parents, the child can now draw human beings, houses, pets even the surroundings of the child. We can remind the parents the child’s development is great and that the child’s mind is growing just by showing pictures of the child’s drawings.

We use to give out weekly papers to the parents\guardians. We use to observe 6 to 7 kids, what they ate, what they did throughout the day, such as painting, craft, free time, outdoors, movies, practise cutting, practise writing, colouring.

How many hours, or mins they took a nap, what they ate breakfast and afternoon snack. For infants it was similar too. With how many time they had diaper change, and if they had bowel movements, and how many times and oz they had a bottle throughout the day. And each time when they get picked up we tell the parents, their child learned how to use scissors, and they had a great day today, etc. she/he did well today and took a nap, they slept during nap time.
