Hi ladies,

I have a new 2-year-old child in my care; she has been here for 2 weeks. I have found her to be a handful, quite aggressive in fact. He parents told me she has never been in care.

She has started pushing, hitting, taking toys & throwing things. She won’t sit on time outs so I have been putting her in her playpen in the nap room for time outs. I tried a playpen on the main level and she rocks it across the floor.

When I told her Mom about her pushing the babies she said she hasn’t acted like this before. Foe me I figured its all new for her sharing etc…

Well today her Aunt came to pick her up and she told me a wealth of information. She told me she is a very aggressive child and that she doesn’t like her playing with her 3 year old boy as she hits him all the time and even hit him in the head causing his skin to split were you could seen bone.

I am shaking in anger right now and feel betrayed.

Over all she is a very bright little girl who loves to learn. Do I suggest Montessori school and say goodbye?

I didn’t have her this morning and it was sooooooooo nice and quite.

I think I know the answer but hate being in this position!
