The starting point for this work is to ensure that you have a good relationship with parents.

It is also important that you show a good understanding of parents own strengths and interests and acknowledge what some parents already do at home. In addition, we also need to think about barriers that might make it difficult for parents, such as having several young children or working long hours. Recognising these barriers should help us to…

I must also be able to work well with the parents of the children I care for so they can trust in me to care for the children once they are not there.

I include activities and books about different cultures and different home environments.

I ask them about their family, culture, and gender, I respect and recognize their emotional and physical needs. I help them with activities if my help is needed. I show empathy toward their feelings. I encourage them to talk about their feelings, and how they are different, and give them appropriate ways to express them. Whether they are sad, mad, or stressed. I comfort them.

With children I would develop a professional relationship with them by meeting all their needs, providing adequate stimulation and ensuring I keep them safe by following all guidelines. One way I can develop a professional relationship with colleagues is by respecting. Listening, sharing information and most of all working as part of a team. With other professionals I would develop a relationship similar to the one with colleagues, as well as working with them, sharing all information, attending meetings and keeping my records up to date. This would be the same for various settings such as primary school, nursery or out of school club.…
