Aussie Childcare Network Forum

Hello, I am hoping that you could assist me with the below three case studies:
1, A 2 year old girl, Hong Hanh, is about to start care at the education and care service where you work. It seems that no English is spoken at home by Hong Hanh or her family. You are having difficulty communicating with her parents about the enrolment process and cannot find out the necessary information to help Hong Hanh successfully transition into care prior to commencing care. What would you do and why?
2, Imagine that you are an educator in a family day care setting. Briefly describe the actions you would need to take to exercise your duty of care to a 2 ½ year old child playing at the water trough in your backyard.
3, A mother asks you that her children not be released into the care of their father. You review the information provided upon enrolment and see that a formal parenting plan has been provided to the service which list both parents as eligible carers. What would you do and why?

Thank you heaps.

For 2 think about - FDC Guidelines

For 3 think about - Since both parents are listed on the enrolment forms you cannot legally refuse the father from picking up the children. The mother would have to get a court order put in place so you are able to legally refuse the father to pick up the children. Until that happens you can't really do anything...

Hope this helps,
