    I would tell them to play, talk and get to know the child, use positive reinforcement and redirect if they do unsafe behaviors these things will show them you are safe person to be around

    I would suggest having greater transparency with the parents. The parents want to see their children engaged in educational activities and they want to share in that experience. The parents are some of our greatest allies in the pursuit of helping nurture and foster growth with children.

    Meet the kids where they are at and interact directly with them. Play and engage with them regularly in a kind and empathetic way. Try not to miss any serves, and make sure that you are returning them appropriately.

    Building strong, meaningful connections with children is the foundation of high-quality early learning. Like being present, use warm and respectful language, follow the child’s lead, be consistent and predictable, notice and celebrate the small things, use “special time” regularly, show that you care every day, build a positive classroom culture, reflect on your own practice and keep learning.

    I would advise other Early Learning Providers to listen attentively without interrupting, follow each child’s interests during play, offer consistent attention and positive reinforcement, and create a safe, welcoming environment where children feel valued and understood.

    I would advise other Early Learning Providers to spend time really listening to children, showing interest in what they say and do. Be warm, patient, and consistent so children feel safe and trusted. Also, join in their play, encourage their ideas, and celebrate their efforts. This helps children feel valued and builds strong, positive connections.

    put the effort in to ask genuine questions to get to know the child, find out what their interest are, help them when they are having a hard time, and making sure the child feels secure and safe mentally and physically.

    What advice would you give to other Early learning Providers who want to build connections with children in their classroom? The advice I would give to other Early learning Providers would be to listen closely and hear children’s ideas by giving them full attention and making them feel valued.
