    The best way to help children recognize their emotions and control their responses is by letting them speak without interruption, or to let them cry it out so they can let it all out then they can calm down and breath. You can ask them why this upset them or show them what they can do instead of lashing out on something or crying it out.

    Engaging in conversation with the child to let them know you were listening. Do fun activities with them that you both might enjoy.

    Greet the students when they walk in, do fun activities such as singing, dancing, reading and painting with them, talk to the children and get to know them.

    First, I would welcome them with a smile and introduce myself then ask about the child. Then i would show them where the exits are, the first aid kit and how the safety hazards are completely out of reach. Then i would give a tour of the rest of the classroom, talk about what activities i would do with the child. I would also show them the outdoor play area.

    My biggest worry is the child will get hurt while in my care and i won’t be able to help them properly because i’m too scared i’ll hurt them more.

    Always be welcoming and ask them how they’re doing. Talk to them about their child and let them know how the child is doing. Tell them your concerns about the child and ask them if they have any questions about what brought you to this conclusion. Don’t be condescending.

    If i were the parent to a young child, three things i would want my child’s provider to do is

    *Treat my child the same way they would treat theirs

    *give them the care and support they need

    *tell me what my child did during the day

    Three fears i would have are

    *My child doesn’t feel safe without me

    *My child gets neglected or ignored

    *My child is treated differently because they come from a different background

  • Engage with the children by asking them questions while they’re doing activities, get down on their level and get to know the child. Encourage the child to participate in circle time and encourage them to engage with the other children.
