    Some of the best ways to help children recognize their emotions and control their responses is by letting them speak and express their emotions, often times kids need to let their feelings out in order to help us as the caregiver understand them and once we do we’ll be able to help them.

    So far the only technique I know about is deep breathing and meditation.

    If I was a parent of a young child, three things I would want most from my child’s provider is for them to 1. Care for my child the same way they would for others.

    2. Give them the attention and support they need.

    3. Protect them and accept them for who they are.

    Three fears I might have when leaving my child under someone else’s care is

    1. Them not paying no sort of attention to my child

    2. Not protecting my child

    3. Not being their for them when they need help or support

  • Observing and documenting a child’s development helps early learning providers understand the child better and it also helps them understand if the child’s development is going in the right direction or wrong direction.

    I feel like screen time for children in childcare is not that bad, I feel like 1 hour of screen time would make the kids happy and by screen time I mean having like a TV in the classroom and showing kids educational things.

    Early learning providers can do activities with the kids like playing to create a “Serve and Return” environment

    In this situation it is right to have a meeting with the parent and let them know that it’s not okay picking their child up late as it effects the child, I would also be sure to try and understand the parents point of view and reasoning first before moving forward and making any sort of reports concerning the situation.

    According to WAC 100-300-0160 it states that early learning providers must provide culturally and racially diverse learning opportunities through their curriculum activities and materials that represents the kids along with their family and staff. Some of these materials may include diverse dolls, diverse music and so on.
