I work at a daycare in the 1 year old room. We have a child who is super hyperactive, is a biter, and bullies the other children. He also loves running out of the room. His parents are basically useless and give him no positive attention at home. I have a room of 8 kids with me and another teacher. I have tried teethers, put up stop signs and blue tape by the door. We have tried rewarding him with a stamp or a sticker for good behavior but he just licks the stamp off and eats the sticker. In the past 2 weeks he has bit someone 15 times. He bit another child while wearing a teething necklace.The daycare just says that you just need 1 of you to be by him 24/7 & the other 1 take care of the other 7. I don't feel that is fair to the other teacher or the kids. The director is no help and could care less. Worst of all now the other children are starting to copy his behavior. I am burnt out and frustrated. Any suggestions?
