When the little girl in my care was due to start preschool I arranged to stay with her for the first few times until she had got to know the place and all teachers . This helped her settle a lot quicker and caused less stress and anxiety to the family. At home also I was planning activities to help such as playing schools,with each of us taking turns to be the teacher. I encouraged her to be independent in going to the toilet and seeing to her own needs and we practiced putting her coat on by herself, all things to help with the transition. All the time I was explaining what is going to happen and what it might mean to her. To support our play and this important change in her life I also used puppets , painting and stories which can all help children to understand and come to terms with changes and transitions in their lives. And we as a adults can help by listening to them , and by being honest and…

Change can be difficult part of a person’s life, oftentimes quite harrowing. Some may find change to be a good thing. I, on the other hand, find it to be more than former. This great change in my life was when my family was forced to move to a new city when I was fourteen. Not only, was I facing a great change, but it would be a change that would affect me for the rest of my life. When I found out that we were moving, I was frightened. I was going to lose all of my friends. I was going to have to start over. That was scary. Being the new kid in school is awful and upsetting, and I was not looking forward to that at all. Already being a shy person who has trouble connecting with new people, being forced to start at a new school was absolutely terrifying.…
