All About Me form for new enrollments.
The getting-to-know-you sheet parents fill out before day one — favorites, nap and comfort routines, worries, and the important people — so a new child feels known instead of new.
The things enrollment forms never ask.
Day one goes better when you already know the lullaby.
The enrollment form collects the legal child; this form collects the actual one. Knowing that a new two-year-old naps with a specific bunny, panics at the vacuum, and will eat anything except peas turns a hard first week into a manageable one — you can comfort specifically instead of generically, and children notice the difference immediately.
- Send it home with the enrollment packet but as the "fun one" — parents rushing through paperwork slow down and write real answers when the form is warm.
- Read it before the first morning, not during it. Greeting a new child with their favorite song queued up is a five-second trick that looks like magic to a nervous parent.
- Mind the "my people" section at pick-up talk. When a child chatters about "Mimi" all afternoon, knowing that's grandma keeps you in the conversation — but the enrollment form's authorized pick-up list is still the only list that opens the door.
- Refresh it yearly for littles. A toddler's favorites have a shelf life of months; a quick re-do each fall keeps the file describing the child you actually have.
Know every child — and keep it where staff can see it.
Wylari keeps notes, allergies, routines, and family details on each child's record, visible to the staff who need them at exactly the moment they need them.
