Harmony Childcare Center, LLC 860-436-9633 414 King St. South Windsor, CT WEEKLY NURSE: Needed ASAP The daycare center’s nurse provides onsite assessment of a sick or injured child’s needs. That information is relayed to the appropriate primary health care provider or emergency room -- as well as to the parents. She tracks each child’s medical records while they are enrolled. The nurse also maintains records of each child’s physical development. If the daycare center has children with special needs, the nurse supervises any accommodations necessary to serve those children. The daycare center nurse provides training to the center’s staff on things such as sanitary diaper changing and proper hand washing procedures. She also monitors the facilities for health issues and cleanliness. Keeping the center’s staff and parents informed about health care with emphasis on preventative care is a duty of the nurse, as well. Skills Like any nurse, a daycare center’s nurse must have patience and compassion to work with sick or injured children. People skills are necessary to deal with children, parents and staff. She must be able to remain calm in any situation, yet solve problems quickly in an emergency. The nurse may be required to give presentations to staff and parents, so public speaking skills are desirable. Computer skills will make it easier for the nurse to keep student records
