1. In your own words summarise the major learning points from the whole of the study programme with particular reference to:

Like other day care facilities, The Kids Learning Centre strives to provide the best in child care. As part of their program to

Self: Meeting each child with a calm, reassuring, and caring demeanor upon entering the center each morning or evening is a confidence builder in children. They begin to rely on a poised confidant figure who is consistant with seeing them feel appreciated and smiling. It helps them understand to adjust to an environment they are currently in no matter how they were feeling prior to coming in the setting. The goal

Their main objective is to create a safe educational environment for the children to learn in to help them develop in all areas. The setting offers a variety of activities for the children to take part in which will develop areas of their holistic development which will work with the children to reach the goals set for them.

1. Explain the sequence and rate of each aspect of development from birth – 19years.

We select books, equipment and resources which promote continuity and progression, provide sufficient challenge and meet the needs and interests of all children

Early education results from interactions between children and all adults who serve as their caregivers, including parents, relatives, baby sitters, teachers, and foster carers.

Providing physical and emotional security for each child and helping each child to know, accept, and take pride in him or herself while developing a sense of independence is my responsibility as a child caregiver. Part of my responsibility is treating each child as an individual and promoting their own strengths and needs as they grow. To encourage growth in each of these areas I use books, pictures, stories, and discussions to help children identify with positive events and experiences in their lives. I help to ensure each of my children feel love, affection, and security through consistent encouragement and positive reinforcement.

As a childminder you have to make sure that you meet the educational needs of

The main ideas in both CAFS 200: Introduction to child, adolescent, and family development and CHDV B20: Principles and Practices were focused on the developmental theory highlight as well as appropriate practices applied to programs and environments. These courses highlighted on the roles of relationships, interactions, and teaching strategies that would support physical, social, and creative development for all children. These courses taught us as students how to conduct observations, what to look for, and how to record the findings accurately.

Throughout the years from the age of 3 years of age to five years, these may be seen as an exhilarating time for the children and their families. We aim to make the child’s time at the centre educational. The main thing Little Joeys is working towards in the year of 2016 are for them to become confident within themselves and develop their use of communication skills and have the readiness of being able to transition into school. The centres philosophy is coherent with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) which is used with the educators interacting with the children.

Caregivers play a primary role in how a child may develop. The daily interaction between the caregiver and child continually changes the pathway in which the child may take. How the child is raised and the parenting style used is a significant influence on that development by affecting the relationship between parent and child. This supports the Attachment theory in which emphasizes relationship between the child and caregiver as a key factor in development.

Cognitive developments allow the child to begin to understand and interact with the environment and see things from the carer’s point of view, adjusting behaviours accordingly and understanding that the carer has goals and plans, therefore, and the relationship is seen as partnership. Cognitive skills are necessary in adapting to the environment. As Hendey and Kloep (2002)

During my observations in the different classrooms at “The childcare Center”, I learned about the proper environment, the fundamentals of the teachers lesson plans, their health and safety regulations, their approach to guidance and discipline, and overall quality childcare. The center has eight different levels of age groups; each of them has their own curriculum based on their age and developmental needs. This curriculum changes and has a new theme each month that helps the lead teachers to be able to start their lesson plans each week. From infants all the way to pre-K the lesson plans include fine motor, gross motor, art and sensory, math and manipulatives, music and movement, language including both signing and Spanish.
