hahaha omg i can seriously relate i have this little boy who is a "freaquent flyer" whether he comes in because he's hurt/sick or getting in trouble. He chooses to sit right in front of my desk and constantly asks questions beginning with "Nurse"i couldnt handle it anymore to the point i told him "(kid who says nurse too much" please stop talking you are in the office and you're in trouble. he says okay...not even a minute later i hear, "um..nurse..." you seriously gotta love em

Hi,
Has anyone seeN the TV ad for Family Guy, where Lois is in bed and Stuie is standing by the bed going "Mom" "Mom" every 5 seconds until it drives her nuts? That was my day today.
I had a little Pre-K boy - cute as a button . He had a temp of just over 100, so I called home. It took me 45 minutes to get a call back from Mom, then a promise to pick him up in no later than an hour. An hour and a half later Mom comes in. In all that time, that little one called me "Nurse mc3" "Nurse mc3" "Nurse mc3" about 45 gazillion times. For almost 2 hours. Non-stop. Wouldn't rest, wouldn't color, wouldn't look at a book. Wanted to chat. I felt like Lois in that commercial! I can still hear his little voice, "Nurse mc3" "Nurse mc3" echoing in mind brain. When Mom arrived, he'd just fallen asleep....
Gotta love 'em!

Yes I love that commercial because it reminds me of my own children. That is so cute, I remember being a school nurse and I loved it. Especially with the little ones, who can be so cute :heartbeat But can get on you nerves!! I think the mom maybe was trying to buy herself a little extra time too! LOL

So cute. It makes me want to be a school nurse.

How adorable!

I'd take that over being told a million times that I suck because I moved too slowly getting colder ice.

So, so true! The pay is awful, the benefits pretty good, and the vacation time is great. I feel very fortunate that I'm able to afford to work at my school! (Barely afford to, but that's another story!)

I remember one kid just like that (seriously, exactly like that...did he transfer to your district?) Mom was going to be a while, and I had a couple reports and other things I needed to get done. I tried for a while to redirect him so I could get my work done. Eventually I gave up, closed my binder and gave him 100% focused attention. We ended up having a great conversation in which he taught me all about SpongeBob square pants (or as my 4 year old says, BobBob Square Pants). He was the funniest kid I've ever met and ended up cracking me up all afternoon. I was actually sorry to see him go when mom got there. I think that is going to be one of the top memories I will take away from School Nursing. Sometimes I guess you just have to get into their world for a little while. :)
