I am pretty upset over this. I know that they are going to keep the boy away from Paige to help prevent this. Believe it or not both of my boy were in daycare- two different centers- and I never had this occur. Not sure really how to handle it. However- I know if it happens again and the kid is still there I will be looking for another center. What do ya think??
Oh here is a picture of Paige from Sunday- I don't know how she wound up looking this disheveled.

Oooh, I'd be so mad too!!
But, hey, maybe he thinks Paige is delicious! :) This too shall pass...or the kid will get kicked out, lol!
Ugh! So she's got her first fan, huh? :) He's probably got a crush on her a mile wide and can't think of another way to show his affections!
Seriously though, I would be upset too and don't blame ya a bit for looking around if they can't keep your cutie bite free!!!
She is darling disheveled
I'd be pretty upset as well if this was one of my kids...it is a common problem with that age but it shouldn't happen more than once.
I'd ask to sit in and watch how the daycare providers are interacting with the kids and see what they do to prevent the frustrations causing the behavior. At this age they HAVE to step in and problem solve for the kids....
Poor baby, Paige is such a darling and I'm sure it upset her to be bit.
Good luck!

You have every right to be mad because they are taking care of your sweet Paige and you want to make sure that she's safe while you're at work. As a kindergarten teacher, biting does happen. After the first time, we make sure that we keep an eye on the biter. But to let him do it to Paige 3 times, now that's too much. I hope the biting stops because Paige is just to cute to have that happen to her.
I was very upset when my son kept getting bitten by the same biter at his daycare. I was totally going to switch daycares. But then when I called three other daycares and asked them about biting, I found out that it is WAY common. I grudgingly kept him where he was. Then about a month later, the biter did stop. (And I know the mom felt really crappy about it. The biter kid really was not a monster, just a toddler who was frustrated and unfortunately my son felt the brunt of it. The daycare center did try to have one of the helpers stick with the biter, and it helped a little...
I am so sorry for Paige, she must be really sweet. I agree that one more time would put me over the edge. Hang in there!
