Assignment 10- Listening Post

Everyone has experienced a place or setting where conversations are eager with curious questions, or even a place that is noisy in a positive way. Working at my Mother’s daycare is filled with constant cute noises, sometimes cries, positives conversations, songs like baby shark, Old McDonald, Twinkle-Twinkle Little Star, Dora The Explorer, and many other sounds that are toddlers and babies’ favorite to hear throughout the day. You know how a rooster wakes a farm, or how your alarm clock awakes you in the morning, well a newborn baby’s cry is my rooster and alarm clock every summer, and has been for a while. Hearing children, including my own recite their ABCS and 123s and sing lullabies and Nursery Rhymes makes me the happiest while working my mother’s in home daycare. Hearing babies coo or speak in baby language warms the heart of many who visit’s our home or daycare. Just imagine hearing children all day, sometimes it can be sweet sounds, and sometimes it can be stressful sounds. Hearing conversations between my mother and parents are refreshing to him simply because she has a desire to help parents by working around their schedules as well as giving them encouraging words in difficult situations. Though living in a noisy place may seem dreadful to others, to be honest I love it, sometimes I find it hard sleeping without noise, as well as still hearing children’s voice in my head because that is exactly what I’m used, it has been my way of life since I was a baby myself.
