Kid Stuff: Good Day Care Programs
(Editor’s Note: This is
another in a series of ar
ticles about children sub
mitted by the Human
Development Division of the
Pasquotank - Perquimans -
Chowan-Camden District
Health Deprtment.)
Choosing Good Day Care
Today more mothers are
working outside of the home
than ever before.
Frequently these mothers
are faced with the problem
of finding appropriate child
care arrangements for their
children. Alternatives in
clude individual child care,
family day care homes, and
center-based care such as
licensed or certified day
care centers.
Good day care is defined
as a program that offers
healthy social and
educational experiences
under trained supervision in
safe and stimulating
surroundings. Quality day
care promotes individuality
and encourages respon
sibility.
Each child and family is
different. A good day care
choice for one child and one
family may not be the best
choice for another. The
Vepco Fire Reported
At about 7:22 A. M.
Friday, a fire at an elec
trical transformer carrying
power from Vepco’s North
Anna 2 Nuclear Unit caused
an automatic shutdown of
the unit.
At about 7:40 A. M., the
fire damaged cables
carrying power to the
station emergency power
supplied by on-site diesel
generators was im
mediately available but not
needed. Because this
damage held the potential
for degradtion of the level of
safety at the station, the
station emergency director
declared a station alert in
accordance with Vepco’s
corporate Emergency
Response Plan.
The fire was extinguished
about 8:25 A. M. and the
station alert was terminated
about 9:20 A.JVt. Fire crews
from Louisa County, Spot
following suggestions are
made to assist parents in
making the best possible
choice:
1. Visit local day care
programs. Take your child
and see how he reacts.
Observe the children in the
centers and talk to their
parents.
2. Look at the building and
playground. Are colorful
and cheerful areas provided
separately for infants,
toddlers and older children?
Is there adequate space? Is
cleanliness adequate? Are
there ample and suitable
toys for every age level and
within reach of the child? Is
there an outside fenced play
area with playground
equipment?
3. Observe the staff or
caregivers. Are there
enough adult caregivers to
meet your child’s individual
needs? Does the staff work
well together? Do they talk
to the children and interact
appropriately?
4. Join in mealtime or
snack time. Are menus
posted for each day? Is the
food nutritious and ap
pealing to young children?
sylvania County and the
Town of Mineral responded
and assisted Vepco’s fire
crew in extinguishing the
blaze.
There was no release of
radiation and at no time was
there any actual danger to
the public health or safety.
There were no injuries to
station personnel.
The fire was confined to
the electrical generating
side of the station and did
not affect the building
containing the nuclear
reactor, which is located
about 100 yards from the
transformer.
The spoon as we know
it today, with its spatu
late handle, dates from
only the 18th century.
Is individual attention given
to each child ready to learn
to use a cup and spoon? Are
infants held when feeding or
are propped-up bottles
used?
Finding good child care
takes time and effort. But if
you locate a program which
you feel comfortable using
and which your child enjoys,
it will be time and effort well
