Hi I wanted to tell you I agree with you totally. You're not overdoing it. If there was something wrong the parent would be very angry you didn't call. And trust me, kids tell their parents everything! I think there's nothing wrong with calling for a young child as you said because of their age. You are letting their parent know they are not feeling well. It doesn't have to be a 10 minute call, just a brief conversation. Unfortunately we are not supposed to use email, etc. So what choice is left? Most parents I call are grateful that I have called. It also helps to have a plan in case the child comes in again. that way the parent is not surprised when they get a call back saying come pick your child up. They will probably already have made arrangements at work, or rescheduled their appts, etc. remember these kids are only 3 or 4 years old, etc, and they count on us to be their advocate. Keep up the good work!
