Changing Diapers in Child Care

Training based on best practices for diapering in child care.

[@carlhenderson7254]

This is a life skill, something to instill. I'm a child care coach and we encourage this. If I hadn't seen an older teacher with 5 babies do it like clock work I would sympathize. But after seeing it, no excuses.

[@FloppyBunnyVids]

Thanks so much! I am in grade 10 and wanting to be a childcare worker and I was in need of knowing how to correctly change the diaper! You've helped heaps

[@stephanib7591]

I work in daycare and this is so unrealistic, it's laughable. 🙄

[@zakiyaholman2360]

agreed lol😂

[@MariahGunter-tb7vy]

1000% we'd be changing all day 🤣🤣

[@alanamyeshia2794]

reading the comments made me cringe...great job demonstrating proper hand washing alerting us of dirty surfaces and remembering to chart. Really great video thanks for sharing...😀👶

[@deannabrock5319]

So an average of 6 minutes per diaper change, based on the length of this video...which doesn't take into account the squirming of a baby on the table or the time it takes to undress/redress (and the multiple snaps on some outfits). Oh, and don't forget the other children who may be needing your attention at the same time. If you have ten babies and each change takes 6+ minutes, it would take a solid hour to change everyone's diaper...and then it's about time to start all over again. I work with infants and we do follow these procedures to the letter, but honestly, I have to wonder about the people who came up with these procedures. I highly doubt they ever worked in an actual room with real live babies - at least not in one that is at the state mandated teacher/child ratio. XD

[@erinschneider3212]

Deanna Brock it was a demonstration. She did it slower to explain what she was doing.

[@deannabrock5319]

As I said in my previous post...a demonstration with a doll who isn't squirming on the table. Also, without having to pull clothing off and then put it back on the squirming child only to have to snap 10+ snaps while their legs are moving. I do this all day long. Even with this lady doing it slower to "explain", it still takes about this long with a live, moving child. And spending 6+ minutes per child when there are ten children in the room is ridiculous. Sorry, but it's true. lol I meant no disrespect toward the person who created this video. I was only stating my views on the actual process which was created by someone other than this lady, I'm sure.

[@erinschneider3212]

Deanna Brock ok. I kind of viewed it as an offense, I understand.

I started working at daycare about a year ago and the biggest complaint about my job performance is that I'm not a fast diaper changer. People will say, "that's okay, than offer to do it for me, and remind me that sometimes when we have to change a lot of kids at once we have to hurry up." It's a head scratch for me because I have two kids of my own. Pretty sure I'm doing all the steps right, I'll try as I might I am not getting any faster.

[@elia19]

Such an unrealistic changing procedure.

[@erunstoppable1174]

Elia Ciucurita Right because the parents do that at home totally

[@vinessalovely8585]

Thanks for this, I'm going to work at a daycare soon and this is VERY helpful😊👍😊.

[@gloriawilliams2090]

What about only using one glove for wiping and taking the soiled pamper in that same gloved hand pull the glove over the pamper dispose then the other gloved hand for putting on cream if needed or using the gloved hand to open the diaper place under the child and put on remove the glove wipes your hands and child's hands ?

[@jennifercuevas2625]

Waisting so much water!!!

[@emilychen4781]

Yeah! and it is not even a real baby

[@anarivas4884]

Jennifer Cuevas I know I was thinking the same thing

[@hunterkennedy641]

Water cannot be wasted. It can only be contaminated. But that's why we have something called the water cycle. The same water has been on this planet for billions of years. If it was constantly being "wasted" then we wouldn't have any by now...

[@selenapequeno2082]

Well this is something we actively do at the daycare I work at so it is a good refresher

[@katierose1893]

Why wash your hands if you're wearing gloves? Why wipe the baby's hands and yours if you wore gloves and you're washing the baby's hands anyway? Holding a baby over the sink like that is dangerous and uncomfortable for the baby.

[@samdisclaimer4521]

Liz Holy Cripes I love you because germs spread faster evn ifthe gloves are tight thsy can still get in there is always an opening for germs to geth through thats why it makes things so mutch easier

[@FarahA27]

When do you notify the baby that you are going to change their diaper soon? Do you do it before setting up the station?

[@AdnanKauser]

4:00 your crushing her leg!!

[@pillowsharky]

please make an updated demo showing the right way to wash while saving precious water. LET'S SAVE WATER!

[@sleepykitten9242]

Let's not let the water run before actually washing one's hands. Water conservation is important

[@jeordanchavannes5239]

I understand your point, but the Water has to be warm not cold. So it’s good to let it run a little bit before washing your hands to kill the germs. Especially when working in hospital, the water is always so cold and needs time to warm up.

[@ilianafierro5125]

Its just a demonstration Good job!

[@erunstoppable1174]

Can you please show multiple diaper changes because if we have to sit for two minutes every single time that we spray with bleach to change a child it’s going to take an hour to change 10 to 12 kids Do you use a timer how do you make sure it’s been two minutes before you put the child on the table?

[@erunstoppable1174]

This is like OCD cleanliness. Using wipes on the babies hands and then washing them after? Wiipes on your hands after you have removed your gloves?

[@JoshWhittle.]

I think I struggled with potty training when younger. But it wasnt till I was 8 I started having the odd "aciddent" down and again. They mostly happened at night. Bug I do recall it happening during the day at some point. think it was only once every 2 to 3 months but as time geaduled if happened frequenly. Idk but I think round age of 11 I had these Underwear things *not a nappy* it just was something to hflp with confidence. I stilll have some. Probably havent used one for a good 2 years.

How can you wash child's hands for 20 sec or hold him do close to tap.... child will move or cry and hit his head of tap....and definitely you won't be able to do it for 20 sec.... waste of time and water and you better use wipes again....

[@shawnbrandt8783]

is it poop

[@jravidal16]

Please use a real baby next time... Real life is different, the way the person holds the baby to wash hands is not what you would do with a real baby, and some babies and toddler get frustrated when your are washing hands for 20 seconds ... Can you help us on how to make it fun for that age besides songs??. Thank You.

Really ridiculous been changing diapers for a very long time you would be there all day give me a break!

[@poetinmyheart94]

660 gallons of water for one single burger. People leaving their taps running are not the problem here...

[@carmellamae19]

I don't agree with this. How many times do you need to wash your hands and sanitize everything? Never happens with my three children. Too much cleaning doesn't help the child to stay healthy they need a few germs to get immune. I change the diaper with my three children and all I did was took off the diaper, clean it with wipes or wash with water if wipes are not available, dry it with a towel, and put the diaper again. Then after I can wash my hands. That's it! and it's not easy to wash their hands since they are moving, better use a clean towel and wet it. I don't understand why people are so scared of germs.

[@woahtransbeuponye1084]

it's because these are instructions for a child care center, not your own home. after changing a child, a teacher or child care worker will be touching other children and other surfaces, including surfaces that children are playing on (and kids at this age will absolutely be sticking their toys in their mouths) and surfaces that children eat on. there's a higher standard of hygiene for a child care center versus a private family home, and it has nothing to do with being "scared" of germs. however i will say that wiping the baby's hands and then washing the baby's hands feels unrealistic.

[@elizabethedwards1672]

She also should have immediately washed her hands after changing the baby, then wiped down the changing table

[@nalacatcoffeechannel2510]

I wish the baby would wear the same very peed and very poopy diaper every day. I wish the woman would bathe the baby with the very peed and very poopy diaper on. I wish the woman would keep the very peed and very poopy diaper on the very dirty diapered baby and never remove the very dirty diaper.

[@arshpreet04]

That’s so much wastage of water. At least switch off the tap when you are doing 20 second set or wiping hands with paper towel.

[@karadelport5187]

I'm cringing at the amount of water you've just wasted. I can't watch this again, it's too painful for someone living in a water scarce area. Also, holding a baby over the sink like that to wash their hands is a bad idea, especially those who don't have proper neck control yet.

[@Simplyc-bt3ny]

Ok but America is a first world country. The water is refiltered and recycled. So there is no waste. ☠️ also bear in mind this is just for demonstration. The baby ain’t real. And even if it was it would be fine because it would be supported.

[@karadelport5187]

@@Simplyc-bt3ny Thank you for your insight. I'm specifically referring to drinking water. If the water is refiltered and recycled, is it safe for human consumption again? I am aware that a doll is being used in this demonstration. As a mom I know how fragile small babies are and how careful you need to be with supporting their necks. I feel that the demonstration does not cater realistically for cleaning a small baby's hands as it would be very difficult to hold the baby over a basin, wash its hands and support its neck at the same time.
