Incident

Modern nannies can't even assassinate 2 kids simultaneously. Pathetic. Kids! Not some Rembo-Terminators.

That feels very dystopian

came here to say just this, just seeing a feed of your childs interactions at another space is fucking weird. Why goto this logging level? Isnt it just good enough of, yeah they napped well today, and they hit there head, it scared them but we got them calmed and an ice pack just in case.
I feel like this is what helicopter parenting but they have to work so this is what they want and they need to calm down, they dont even monitor the indoor air at this level and that has been shown to be a big contributor of poor mental performance then just being at day care with sun and playing with others.
- We log this information for a whole host of reasons. Many parents sadly don't get the chance to speak to an educator in depth to discuss their kids day, tracking medical needs, etc. A lot of parents don't even look at this, but it's useful to have if it's ever needed.
  My only complaint, and this extends to all the genuinely important paper work we have to do is that we never get enough time to be off floor to do it.
- Agreed on the diaper change one, but the first half is literally what you said with a timestamp. The nap one is important because if they did or didn't nap, you can adjust what you do after
- I also think it’s dystopian but it is quite helpful information to know when they were fed and/or napped. If you pick up your child and they are unusually hungry or tired, etc it can be helpful. I doubt the caretakers have time to talk to each parent or they change shifts. Paper forms are popular at less fancy places
- Let's not put the blame only on the parents. Anyone who has spent more than 30 seconds working for a corp would understand that taking credit for work does not mean the work got done.
  Assuming the diapers aren't tracked by barcode and there isn't an independent inspector validating each operation, I would be MORE wary about my kid being well taken care of at a place that measures and tracks work this way. Especially since the types of management that would think this was a good idea are also the type to not understand how work actually gets done and drives to making the metrics look good at the expense of actually caring for human children.

Additional notes: I was assassinating another child

Is this daycare or militia camp?

I don't think the military or even prison tracks individuals with this level of verbose. I feel like I'm reading debugging logs.

Hey FYI your black bars are see through

Not my OC. OOP was told about this and left the post up anyway :)
- I wonder if Miss Emely appreciated that. Hell, did anybody ask Noam before blasting his dirty laundry all over the internet?

Wtf is this so though? I hate this trend or having to stop working every 2 seconds to prove you are working.

Daycare is kind of intense.
You have a bunch of parents who would rather be with their kids. They're paying close to their own mortgage/rent to have their kids watched. They're convinced that the teens/young adults the daycare hires are not doing anything. Their kids are there with a load of other kids, pick up bad habits, get bullied and yelled at by kids in worse home situations. As soon any any scratch or scrape happens they want to know know for those prices.
The timesheets give them solace that their kid is being watched, fed, changed, and taken care of emotionally.
it's not necessary, but it's not hard to see why it happens
Looks like a daycare that's taking care of toddlers and infants. Logging these events makes a bit more sense as you have to be at least roughly aware of this stuff to keep an eye out for potential health issues. The kid isn't able to convey things directly so you have to look for signs. If diapers aren't being soiled, then you might need a medical exam, for example.
The precision of the timestamps might seem a bit needlessly specific, but if you are noting it electronically, might as well let the system time-stamp it.
- Don't think it's system timestamps, as they're curiously rounded
In their defence looking through the black bars reveals that there are multiple caretakers collectively taking care of the children, so it becomes necessary to track what care has already been given to the kids so all the adults can coordinate.
- no?????? If thats the case the groups are too big!! I have a child in daycare and I'd be horrified if there was such a bustle that the adults need to log every action they take because otherwise a kid might not get his diapers changed!!
That doesn't seem weirdly detailed to me? Kid bumped their head and they wrote down what happened.
- Look at the timestamps: 1:20 1:30 1:40 2:30 ridiculous.
  Could just go: oh yeah he bumped his head today when parents come pick him up instead.
I have to log timesheets at work to say what I've been doing. I have a section everyday in my timetable schedule to fill in the timesheet. So when I'm filling in the timesheet I have to actually tell them what I was doing for that 4 minutes worth of time.
3:30 p.m. to 3:34 p.m. - filling in timesheet
Really?
- This was unironically one of the worst jobs I ever worked. Management spent months trying to figure out why the night shift couldn't keep up with the same routine work day shift did.
  For some reason 2 people < 25 people never really clicked.
People want to know
- If I had a kid I would want them to spend as much time as possible looking after the kid. I don't need them to tell me that they're doing that, I assumed that they're doing that so I'm no better off.
  Also everyone estimates those things anyway.

That’s not a very good job of redacting the names. The boxes aren’t fully opaque, I can read the names through them.

Hadn't noticed. I think you'd have to try to get translucent boxes versus a simple solid box. Seems intentional?
- If you took the highlighter tool and changed the color to black, it may default to semitransparent. It’s useful if you’re trying to highlight something in fluorescent yellow.

100% totally censored

I can't be completely surprised that Miss Emely has trouble with spelling.

Assisting?

I think they've got the assassination thing covered, no need to assist.

Never trust auto correct

I don't really know how I feel to see charting at day cares. I guess it does solve a liability need just as much as charting in nursing homes and hospitals do. But we're not usually even this detailed.

Edit: detailed on this like exact diaper changes. We're actually much much much more detailed on falls. Like holy shit the paperwork for a fall.

Yeah, let’s have concussed children take a nap

Yes.
The current advice I’m given in Australia these days is that it’s better for children to sleep and be monitored than kept up and to become exhausted.
If we had genuine belief that a child had a concussion and not just hit themselves on a fall (happens daily), we would ask for the child to be collected by parents.
You don't usually feel better a few seconds after a concussion, do you? Even with lots of hugs?
Sounds like diaper aged kids, so they bump into things all the time and will cry for 30 seconds because it was scary then forget that anything happened and be fine. You should see the way my 3 year old will run full tilt directly into things sometimes!
