STUDENT CARE CARD When Baby starts crying: Step 1:
Pick Baby up and use key tag.
If Baby beeps or chimes, that means it recognizes you as the
parent. First try feeding, burping,
rocking, or changing diapers. *Feed: Hold the bottle to Baby’s mouth. Baby makes feeding sounds and coos when
done. Hold Baby while feeding or Baby
cries. *Burp: Pat Baby’s back. Baby makes small whimpering sounds and then
burps after several minutes. *Rock: Provide constant, gentle rocking
motion. Baby makes soft whimpering
sounds and coos when done. *Diaper:
Take
Baby’s diaper off. Baby still
whimpers. Put the OTHER diaper on. Baby
coos. If you heard the beep/chime and
Baby is still crying: Step 2:
Pick the Baby up and try rocking for 1 minute. Baby’s head may have been
unsupported, it may have been roughly handled, or Baby may just
be fussy. Rocking helps Baby quiet down. Fussy
crying lasts for 3 minutes and then baby coos. If you did not hear the chime
and Baby is still crying: Step 3: Double-check the ID. Try your ID again and listen for the
chime/beep. If Baby still does not chime/beep, make sure Baby is
being held on its back. Here are some other things that
may happen while you have Baby: *Breathing
sounds mean Baby is sleeping or being rocked. *Coughing
or cooing (happy) sounds mean Baby is awake. *Hearing
the ID chime/beep but not being able to quiet Baby for a few minutes means
Baby was just fussy. *Baby
cries if it is upside down or on its tummy for five or more seconds. *If you
are feeding, burping, rocking or changing Baby when the head falls back or
you roughly handle Baby, Baby cries loudly.
Rock Baby until it is quiet.
You don’t need to care for Baby until it cries again. *You
have 2 minutes to start caring for Baby before missed care is recorded. Frustration-reducing measures
for when Baby is crying *Take
several deep breaths and count to ten. *Say
the alphabet. *Put
Baby in a safe place, than leave the room for a few minutes. *Close
your eyes and think of something pleasant. *Ask
someone else to help. Troubleshooting *If you
hear loud beeps when you are not using the key tag- the batteries are coming
on and off the connectors. Please
contact your teacher. *If you
are feeding your baby and it stops making sucking noises and starts crying
the bottle has probably moved away from the sensor. Try moving the bottle around the chin, lips
cheeks etc to see if the sensor has moved. *If the
baby does not start or stop crying at the appointed time-please contact your
teacher. Only
contact your teacher in an emergency situation! We will check our e-mail and get back to
you, please leave a contact phone#. We
must have your e-mail by In an
extreme emergency-find a paperclip and hold it in the hole in the back of the
baby for 3 straight minutes. The baby
will beep 6 times. Your teacher will see that the simulation
was ended by the emergency switch. You
must have a parent note accompanying the baby on return day. It is up to your teacher to determine
whether or not this was an emergency situation and whether or not the
simulation should be redone.
