A child care worker in a daycare center suspects that one of the children she works with is being abused at home. She has seen some unexplained bruises and marks on the child’s body. The child is losing weight and seems anxious a great deal of the time. The child’s clothing is often inappropriate for the weather. The child care worker wants to do the right thing. How should she proceed in this case? Outline the steps she should take, whom she should speak with, and so on.

The child care worker should take detailed notes each time she notices something off about the child. She needs to act as quickly as possible before anything further happens to the child. She should speak with investigators next.

Answer:

It really depends but the situation should be taken slowly

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start by first asking the child if anything weird happens during child care if the child refuses to awnser or lies to you that means something is up and the child care worker doesn't want anyone knowing about it then if you are willing to proceed you start asking simple questions to the child care worker if she/he is a good liar then you should ask why the bruises are Appearing and remove them from child care.

hope that helped :)
