Every child throughout their life will go through different types of transitions; some of these transitions could be the children going from crawling to walking or a bigger transition, like starting a day nursery full time. These transitions are the different stages of milestones that all children and young people go through. It is essential that all children and young people are supported efficiently and effectively. Going through different transitions can affect children in different ways some will become happy but others may express their feelings differently, for example showing anger throughout the day. During this assignment I am going to be focusing on the transition that many children face, starting a day nursery aged 1-2 years. Nowadays day nurseries are at high demand as the need for parents to go back to work after their child is born is also at high demand. It is essential that all nurseries are at a high quality and parents feel that it is secure and safe to leave their child with the practitioners and feel satisfied.
Most children are used to spending time with their primary career every day. When the time comes to start …show more content…

Education is at the forefront of most new parent’s minds, which is why there is so much pressure on choosing a good preschool. Parents want to make sure that they give their children the best possible start to education, in order to create a solid foundation for success late in life. However, in society today, expectations placed on preschoolers are becoming more demanding, a trend that could have many negative consequences on the development of children. This idea is discussed in the article The New Preschool is Crushing Kids written by Erika Christakis. Christakis interconnects the audience, speaker, and subject as well as uses appeals to logic, emotion, and credibility to craft a strong and effective argument about how preschool has started to place too many expectations on preschoolers.

D1/D2/A1 This piece of work will be focusing on a child aged 18 months starting a nursery day care setting. The two key issues that will be looked at in this assignment will be planning, preparing and reviewing for the child to settling into the setting. Secondly I will be looking into the child’s emotional support that the child may need when starting the setting, along with the attachments of the child that will need to be built or have already been put in place. When planning for a child to start a new setting there will be certain things that will need to be taken into consideration, for example; the child at hand may have never been separated from their primary carers beforehand.

NAEYC argued for salaries and benefits to be linked to qualifications and responsibilities. In 1999, Child and Youth Care forum published a series of articles in a symposium on the professionalization of the early childhood care through developing a positive relationship between professional development and the status and salaries of the childcare staff. The need for improved child outcomes, quality programs, and teacher qualifications has continued to frame the discussion around professional status. The improved wages for childcare staff was still missing from major initiatives. Unless, childcare staff wages were included in all the initatives, the efforts to improve program quality and child outcomes would be very

One of the principles used within the nursery is Article 12 on children's voices being heard. Within the Fife Council Nurseries a learning wall is created from what the children are talking about and learning giving any visitors and enriched sight of what the children are doing within their time at nursery.

I was also placed into pre-school to work for one week. The nursery had a very structured routine, the children would usually arrive at 8:00AM. The children would then have breakfast at 8:30AM and snack time at 10:00AM, pre-school will then go out in the garden at 10:30am until 11:00am and the babies and toddlers would go around 11:30am to 11:45am and get ready for lunch at 12:00.

but it is still a very good idea for practitioners to know how to spot any issues and deal with these appropriately. If short terms issues are not dealt with and these are allowed to build then longer term effects can become apparent. Long terms effects to transition may impact massively on a child’s life and could leave psychological scars for future years. Because of this it is important that a child

Introduction In early childhood education, it is important for teachers to always consider and understand children and the families’ needs.

So, the more explanation about the multi-disciplinary team is that teachers with different professionals such as psychologists, child social worker, police, adult social worker, health visitor or court working together to provide different services and support for children and the families’ needs.

There are a great number of studies that state that the first five years of a child’s development are the most important and that they will set the tone for the child’s ability to learn, socialize, and be a successful member of society. Because of this, proponents believe that preschool should become mandatory for all children. While this might seem like a good solution to some, preschool should not be mandatory for all children before they enter kindergarten. There are many factors to be considered in a child 's early development and to put a blanket demand on entering preschool, could be a disservice to some children based on parental influences, environmental factors, and the level of education and care being given in a particular home childcare
