It?s obviously in your best interest to make sure your kid?s daycare teachers like you. After all, these are the people who take care of your child every day.
But you know this already. So you try your hardest never to be late for pick-up, and you buy the teachers a Christmas gift every year. And every so often, you thank them for everything they do.
We appreciate that. But speaking as an early childhood educator (ECE) who?s been taking care of kids for 20 years, I hate to say it, but despite your best efforts, a lot of you are killing us with your bad behaviour. I think it’s often a case of ignorance as opposed to outright disrespect. So with that mind, I?d like to share with you the eight way you may be pissing off your kid?s daycare teacher. 1. You pick up your kid at 5:58 p.m. and ask multiple important questions that take 15 minutes. Listen, I get it: There?s some important stuff you need to ask me, and you?ve finally got me alone, with no other kids to distract us. It probably seems like an ideal time. But think about how you feel two minutes before the work day is over. Desperate to get out of there, right" I feel the same way. I?m ready to go home and see my own family?I may even have a family member waiting outside for me to drive me home. So instead of peppering me with questions, please use the time to ask me when would be a convenient time for us to chat. Or just try to arrive a bit earlier.
