Standard 6: Law and Society

Introduction

Having previously worked as a Group Family Daycare Provider, I possess a deep understanding of Law and Society. Allow me to elaborate further.

Daycare Provider

Several years ago, I operated a Family to Group Family Daycare out of my apartment in Brooklyn, New York. Initially, it began as a means of supplementing my income while working from home. As word-of-mouth spread, what started with three children under my care quickly expanded to six, and then many more. This growth necessitated the establishment of legal and safety protocols, detailed further in the Risk Assessment document below.

Despite lacking formal training in education, I managed by observing and engaging with the children. One particular moment stands out: when Shania, a newcomer to my daycare, eventually transitioned to public school after three years with us. Her mother's call, expressing excitement about Shania's acceptance into the gifted program at P.S., caught me off guard, as I was unfamiliar with the public school system. Nonetheless, I sensed the significance of the news from her mother's tone. Reflecting on this, I attribute any success to divine intervention.
