Crazy Start to SCHOOL!

This past week at school was nuts....! I have two classes, both are 24-29 months. They are super fun but the beginning is hard, they don't want to leave their mommies! So my Wed/Fri class crazy, well one mom! This crazy mom chooses to pay for her child to come to our school, then b/c he cry's some of the day off and on she Say's "she can't handle it and she is taking him out of school". It drives me crazy when mom's do this! Look MOM'S out there I know its hard to drop your baby off at a new place, especially when their screaming their heads off but please let us do our jobs!!!! If you MOM'S just give us 1-2 weeks you WILL see a dramatic change in how they act from when they started to the following weeks!!!! anyway this mother said she was taking her little boy out and its such a shame b/c this boy is SOOOOO sweet and cute. And once he stops the crying which was like 15 mins after mom left he was amazing!! So on to my other class... this is my Tue/Thurs in this class I feel like I have two crazy parents. One mom has been sitting out in our schools parking lot with binoculars (CRAZY) when we are at playground. If these parents don't trust me that much, then why in the hell would they leave their children with me.... Then I have another set of parents in this same class, that I feel are way to much up in MY job, first they write their child's name one way on ALL the school forms then when I have made all the class room things like the folders, cubby things and their name tags... the parents come out and say nope that his name but we call him this... Its was a completely different name, then the next day I gave them a name tag with the Right name on it and they forget to put it on him and they jump all over me b/c he didn't have a name tag like every one else! really how is this my falut... ha Being a pre-school teacher is normally super easy and loving and FUN but the beginning of this year is so far hard. ;) Then today my boss calls me in to her office to let me know I have a few parents on "Watch" and these parents are keeping their eye's on me and she wanted to give me a heads up, I wasn't in trouble to clarify... But now it's like I know I have parents that think I'm not experienced, old enough, doing enough.. or whatever the problem is, and that part is hard b/c I always want the parents to know I love their kids and I want to do a great job... All I really want is to have a great time with these awesome kids, and I want them to have a great experience too.

  1. First off my eyes are still adjusting from after readuing your blog, the color contrast err
    Anyway your a great mom, and I dont know why they are acting crazy! You havwe a child of your own hello, do you tell them this. I was a crazy mom too once though with reese but he was also left in childcare at 6 weeks after I went back to work, so hopefully that justifies it! Good luck I hope those moms see how much you really care for their children!
