Scenario: Picking up Jake
Posted: Tue Mar 07, 2017 12:06 am
Jake (4 years 3 months) is new to the service and his grandmother usually picks him up, but today her car has broken down and she has sent Jake’s Uncle John, to pick him up. When John arrives it is clear that Jake is excited to see his Uncle however the staff at the service have never met John before and were not aware that he was picking Jake up today. He is also not listed as an authorised pick up on Jake’s enrolment form.
Tamara one of the educators at the service stays with Jake and his Uncle while Jill, the service Director, contacts Jake’s mother to discuss the situation with her. Jake’s mother authorises John to pick Jake up and provides the service with John’s personal details so that they can check his identification. Jill explains to Jakes mother that it is important that the service is contacted if someone different is picking Jake up as they need to be aware of who will be on the premises at all times. Jill returns to Tamara, Jake and John and obtains a copy of John’s licence for the enrolment records. She also provides Jake’s mother with an ‘Authorisation to collect’ form so that she can add Jake’s Uncle to the list of people authorised to collect Jake.
In the scenario, what procedures did the educators follow to ensure Jake’s safety at departure time?
