My friend and I went to a salon for 2 hours and she left her son with 2 nannies. When she returned, she was shocked to find a large bump on the child's forehead. She suspected that the child had fallen from the bed during her nap, but neither of the nannies would admit anything happened. She is so angry since she didn't know what the caused the bump. She rushed her daughter to the hospital to make sure she's okay. Fortunately the bump is not serious.
Falls are common among young children while they start walking running and climbing. Small bumps and bruises are part of growing up, but don't assume that all injuries are minor. Tell nannies to inform you of all accidents these are the advice of her pediatrician, what to report: hot did she fall? What surface did she fall on? Did she vomit right after? Is she crying excessively? Also leave instructions on who to call, neighbors who can help and leave emergency taxi money in case she has to rush your child to the hospital.
To prevent the baby from falling, you must tell you nannies never to leave baby alone even for a short time. Never place chairs or other furniture beside windows as children may climb on them and fall off. Never leave young children unattended, especially near stairways. Install a safety gate o the stairs. Keep stairs clear of toys and other things that can cause accidental fall. Always strap children into high chairs strollers or shopping carts.
You can also teach your nannies on what to do in case of accidents happens.
1.Check if the baby if he has a bumps, bruise, or broken bones anywhere on his body.
2.Make the baby stop from crying in a nice way.
3.If the injured is not that serious, just put an ice pack on the bumps.
4.Observed it thoroughly until the next couple of days just to know if there is still finds some serious symptoms.
5.Call right away the parents.
Rush the child into the hospital if this the following will happen:
1.The child's is irritable and do not stop from crying.
2.If the child's is sleepy after the fall and cannot easily wake up.
3.If the child's vomits.
4.If the child's had pain on the head or at his back.
5.If the child's cannot walk normally.
6.If the child's eyes cannot focus normally.
7.Serious injure on his head, neck, back, ribs, or thighs and legs.
8.If the child's faint.
9.If the child's hard to breath.
10.If there is blood or water coming our from child's nose, ears and mouth.
You will really not feel well if you found out that there is an accident happened in one of your children, especially when it happen outside, most mother always need a support from their nanny, but just to be sure make your nanny be knowledgeable on what to do if accident occurs. As a mother we always want to protect them but still accident happen no matter how careful we are on our children.
Talk about being in the right place at the right time! This story gives new meaning to the term "postal service," which most people regard as an oxymoron.
If you were that postal worker, wouldn't you think you had been designated an angel, at least temporarily? How else could you have been so miraculously positioned? And even if that was your only angelic act ever, you would get to go through the day and the year and your life, knowing that you had saved a tiny child.
You might figure that you no longer had to work to get to heaven, that this event bought you a first class ticket. But hopefully you would go on looking for angel opportunities, in spite of your elevated status.
How about the child? What will she think, many years from now, when she comes to understand the divine intervention that allowed her to live past the age of eighteen months? Will she meet the postal worker, get to know her angel? Hopefully, at the very least, she will carry around a little shock and awe and gratitude that will serve her well in life. Maybe she, too, will keep her eye on windowsills for adventurous babies.
Now let us consider the third party in this miraculous triangle: the mother.
I know that, although I have always had minor anxiety, when my first child was born, I began to worry in earnest. My imagination exploded with possible baby-threatening scenarios: SIDS, drowning in one of L.A.'s omnipresent pools, kidnapping. Even now that she is a teenager, I inhale when she hops in the Honda and only exhale when she returns safely from the madness of the Los Angeles freeways.
Most parents feel this way, to varying degrees, and I am sure the mother of the Albany baby is no exception.
So how was it for her as she ran down the stairs to recover her child after the fall, all her maternal anxiety finally justified? She must have been gripped by devastation, guilt, hysteria and grief; she must have been insane. Then, when she burst from the door to find a postal worker holding her cooing baby, it is hard even to imagine her transition to ecstatic disbelief.
Now, some days later, how does the mother feel after her worst fears were realized and then so quickly dispelled? Aside from putting new locks on the windows, how will she respond? My guess is she will get the gift near-disaster gives: a greatly expanded sense of her daughter's preciousness.
While this mother's emotional rollercoaster ride is way beyond anything I have known, I feel the inpact of her story. When my daughter comes home from college in a few weeks, I will worry while she is in the cab to the airport, worry more while she is in the air, and worry again until she rings the doorbell.
In all likelihood she will get home safely; angels will watch her every step of the way. And when she falls into my arms, it will not be from a high window, but I will flash back to the story of the baby in Albany, and I will hug her a little harder.
