If one of my kids goes missing for 30 seconds, I don't check the toy room. Here's what I actually do 👇

1️⃣ I go straight to the danger zones first. Pool. Bathroom. Garage. Street. Closets can wait. Water can't.

2️⃣ We have a family whistle. Everyone knows it. One whistle means "where are you?" and they whistle back. No idea where someone went? One whistle and they come find me. It sounds simple and it has saved my sanity more times than I can count.

3️⃣ If we're in public and I can't find one of them, I don't just scream their name. I scream their description. "Little girl, 3 years old, yellow dress, pink sneakers." More people can actually look for the right kid.

4️⃣ And I don't tell my kids to scream MOM if they get lost. I teach them to scream my full name. Because in any park or mall there are a hundred moms. There's only one me.

5️⃣ I stopped buying blue or teal swimwear. Neon yellow, hot pink, bright red only. Blue disappears in water and drowning is silent. A cute matching set is not worth it.

6️⃣ I told my kids if they ever get lost to find a mom with kids. Not a uniform, not a random adult. A mom already in protect mode will stop for you faster than anyone.

7️⃣ We practice the emergency scream at home. Full volume. Make everyone look. My neighbors have heard it. I don't care.

I don't teach them any of this to scare them. I do it so they have tools.

A scared kid with no plan is just scared. A scared kid who knows what to do? That's a kid who finds their way back to me.

Save this for the day you need it 🙏

Just wanted to give a huge thank you to our local police detachment. Despite having such busy jobs protecting our community they find the time to come to my Daycare and give my kids the best day ever. The kids had the opportunity to learn about being a police person and all about their equipment and their cruiser. The police constable was absolutely amazing with the kids.

Attention parents and guardians of children aged 4 - 6.

Is your child heading to kindergarten in the fall of 2026? If so, they are due for routine immunization boosters.

Local Northern Health community health units are hosting kindergarten immunization clinics for children aged 4 to 6 beginning this April. Clinics will be offering measles, mumps, rubella and varicella vaccine (MMRV), and tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis and polio vaccine (Tdap-IPV), as well as any additional immunizations your child has missed.

Contact your local health unit to for more info on clinic dates in your community. You can find a list of local health unit contact information here: https://www.northernhealth.ca/find-a-facility/health-units.
