My CM has never given me any call for concern at all so far but there was an incident this week that has made me concerned/shocked. I'd like to hear of any others who have had their child sustain an injury like this whilst in childcare, what did you do.
What happened was, the cm called dp to ask him to collect ds - when he turned up ds was screaming in agony. The cm mumbled something about ds hitting her daughter (same age) but then burst into tears. Dp left with ds and his arm was fixed at the hospital and is ok. the nurse says it's a common injury. We've done more research and it seems you need to yank the child's arm quite hard to get this injury.
So now we're thinking, did the cm lose her temper and injure ds in anger? and if so, what do we do now?
The thing is, ds was strapped into the buggy next to the cm's daughter at the time -so she was not moving him away from a situation - we have yet to have a clear explanation of the incident, which we will hopefully have this weekend. In the meantime, it would be good to have some advice on how we should approach the whole situation.
