CHCLEG001 Work legally and ethically

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone can help me answering these two questions.

Scenario:
At the end of the day, one of the 2-year-olds is falling asleep during group time and the child becomes very distressed when woken up. This has been happening consistently over the last couple of weeks. The parents have requested that their child is not allowed to sleep during the day because when she does have a sleep, she stays awake late in the evening.

Question:
Name an organisational policy or procedure that may need to be reviewed as a result of events in this scenario
Answer:
safe sleep policy

Question:
What new or changed practices will need to be included in the new version of the policy or procedure?
Answer:
the safe sleep policy would need to be discussed so that parents are able to request sleep preferences but the childcare centre has a responsibility to allow the child the right to sleep if and when they need to.

Is this correct? Am I missing anything?

Thank you very much :)
