The advice I would give would be to ask good questions both to the child, and to the family/care givers of the child. This will help you get to know the child and help him/her feel seen and heard and valued. Specific, positive feedback is also an awesome way to build connection.

Be an active listener. Give one on one time when you can and when noticing children needing some space from the group. Be engaging to the children. Return their serves. Be attentive to their needs and see that they are met. Take space before taking a tone when frustrated, know when to tap out.

Allow children to show you what matters to them, actively listen, and join them in what they like. Watch for cues about what helps them feel connected or disconnected. Use positive language and never shame.
