We would be staying at the Loretto School, our sister school, and then every morning we would cross over the border into Ciudad Juarez and go work at a daycare center, Centro del Spiritu Sanctu. Our first day there we didn’t go to the daycare center, instead we met some friends of Mrs. Hartrich’s, Betty and Peter.

the Concord Daycare were very imaginative. One particular day, Russ carried around a Dinosaur, a pretend pot, and a purse. It never occurred to him that this was a very odd assortment of toys to be playing with. In the kindergarten classroom however, none of the boys would play with a purse. I am reminded of Benjamin in my kindergarten placement. He perceived that it was not socially acceptable for a boy to carry around a purse or pretend to cook with a pot. Russ, at the daycare, is three years
football games, pep-rallies, cheer practice, and class, so basically all day. I saw right then that daycare would be a necessity. I hired my parents, my grandmother, and my friends to baby sit.

If Lauren Ashley were a real baby, I would pay around $90.00 a week just for her to go to daycare, and that doesn't include any extra food or diapers I would need to send. I also couldn't imagine having
Child And Parent Behavior Observation I am almost always surrounded by the interactions between children and their parents. I hear it at my work, I hear it in restaurants, but most of all I hear it at my house. My mother owns a daycare and every night I hear parents being hit by a barrage of questions.

Observation is very important in young children because that is how you get to know a child better. While observing how a child interacts with their peers, adults, and how they behave in different settings, you are getting to know the child without speaking to them.
