Informing parents of bruises instead of them discovering it themselves, in my experience, makes it a nonissue.

I complete an incident/injury report anytime something happens to a child in my care which results in scratches, bruising and injury. Then text report to parent so by the time they arrive to pickup child they are already aware. They usually respond to my text with 'thanks for letting me know".

And sometimes kids get marks outside of your care so look them over, top to bottom, at drop off and ask parents on the spot about any marks you see on child. Doing this over the years have made me realize many of those marks are gotten while they're with family.
