When to call parent
Being 8 months in I've had only a couple of times where I have felt the need to call a parent. It's always been centered around child having a hard time teething or waking up fevered and my call is "do you wish me to give Tylenol?". Ironically, for me it's all the dads that are the easier contact during the day and everytime I'm answered with a "we totally trust you, do whatever you think is necessary". Of course, I still call everytime. But today was my first actual injury. Little guy (20 months), did a face plant, tooth went into the lip...blood stopped quickly, I iced it (had him suck on a frozen yogurt tube)...but once he was back happily playing (swollen lip and all)...I'm torn...do I call? I know Dad would just laugh it off...he's done the same at home. I am going to add this to my interview questions for sure; something like "What incidents, in your opinion, would you appreciate immediate communication on (call to work) as opposed to journal/face to face at end of day?". To summarize, my questions for you all are: When do you call? Help with wording of the interview question?
Children are great imitators.
So give them something great to imitate.
