I was new in town and thought Inch by inch would be ideal for my son who was a month shy from being 2. My son attended Inch by Inch for about 1 week which I feel awful for. He had a history of biting (hes a kid) so I thought it was best to inform the school as any parent should. The director was so pressed on me signing him up for Early Interventions no problem. She informed me that if his biting was ever to become a problem she would right me a referral etc. The following day I went to pick up my son and usually his entire class is playing outside and he was not there. I became worried I looked in his classroom no where to be found until my little sister spotted my son (the only child inside) in a dark room whinning with the director. I was upset , she informed me that he bit and never explained the need to isolate my child. Later that day as I was checking his lunch bag I notice that he did not get to eat his fruit snacks which threw me off. My son is a picky eater and fruit snacks are the best part of his lunch (broke my heart). The following day I drop my son off around 9 am and get a phone call from the daycare stating I have to come pick up my son now because he bit several times. This is when I knew the problem was not my son it was the daycare. My son is not aggressive yes he may get frustrated because of his lack of language but he does not walk around biting people. I rushed and picked up my son out of the fear of endless possibilities and asked for the refferral to Early Intervention. I asked the school what was the plan. I was told that " WE DONT HAVE ENOUGH STAFF TO GIVE YOUR SON THE UNDIVIDED ATTENTION THAT HE NEEDS" I asked should I bring him in I have to work & I was told " NO WERE NOT STAFFED FOR THAT. My heart was broken A WHOLE week went by and we did not receive one call to see if my son was ok or if i followed up with the Early Intervention. Yes the school is predominately white but i thought it was different we were the 1 of 3 African Americans out of 200 probably. DID YOU know my son and I waited 3 weeks for an Interview with Early Interventions then another 2 weeks for an assessment where trained Child behavior therapists, Speech therapist, Cognitive specialist watch your child play, eat, interact etc for them to tell me my child is not qualified he does not qualify. Thank you Inch by Inch for helping me make better choices for my son. He deserves to be in a facility that requires qualifications to work with children.
