Attendance for Emergencies

[craftymissbeth]

I love that chart! And the emergency cards on a clip is great too. Im excited to make something up this weekend. I had my annual inspection last week and I'm realizing just how badly I need some organization in my life

Right back at you...

Yeah, I "think" I have an addiction.

I have a white board calendar by my front door that has my daycare schedule and what kids are here which days.

Like blackcat, I had a carabiner clip with laminated index-sized cards for each child...(with a small picture!) , parents names & emergency #s, allergies, etc. I just put the cards on the clip as the kids came in. No writing necessary!

At one point I did have a board up front, but it was not portable, and too easy for a kid to mess it up. I just hung the clip on a hook (out of reach) by the front door to grab with my keys if needed.

As a teacher we had to have a clipboard with actual marked attendance, the official office form - it was just a list of each kid enrolled and a column for here or absent And it could easily be laminated and wipe-able for each day.

I think this is the direction I'm leaning for now... and maybe with a picture of each child?

Since it's a lot to ask of a parent to help me in an emergency situation I want to make things as easy as possible for them.

Maybe you can do a "who is here today?" Chart where there is a list of the children's names and a little symbol that they (or you/parent for infants) move when the child arrives and leaves. It's also a nice transitional tool for the children.

I think that would be perfect. All on one sheet and easy to use both for you and for parents.

Are you referring to emergency situations such as if you get hurt or your DS needs you to pick him up or something similar?

Just looking for clarification.....some states have some really weird rules/requirements for providers so just double checkin'

I know this plan, of the parent watching other children, wouldn't be allowed in my area unless all of the parents (as the OP is just basically picking whoever comes first as opposed to one parent always doing it) are background checked and I had a copy of them passing it. Technically, in my area, parents aren't even allowed inside unless they are background checked. Drop offs/in are my door unless they're the first ones/last ones.
