A family member attends for childcare. The first time I had ever picked him up I was not asked for ID. They just shoved him out the door. This is concerning to me because I could have been someone with ill intentions. For the "drop off and pick up" they just use random names from the approved pick up list, which caused much confusion for the boy's father one day when his mother had not even been in the county to take the child there. I also witnessed the kindergarten class outside, no social distancing was encouraged. Not an issue except for this is a pandemic and people are getting very sick. One day the child was brought out to me (again no ID was asked for and I did not know the girl who opened the door) and he was limping. He had an ouchie on his knee from an injury during play time and nobody bothered to tell me about his injury. There isn't much effort to communicate with people who pick children up about the child's day.
