Practitioners, when handling professional relationships, have the responsibility to put the needs and right of the children and their families first, and to follow confidentiality principles. Practitioners must demonstrate reliability and accountability by respecting the choices and freedoms of other people. “Showing responsibility and accountability involves doing willingly what you have been asked to do, if this is in your area of responsibility.” Beaver et al (2008 page 202). Practitioners have the responsibility to continue refresher training throughout their careers working with children and their families so they have a clear understanding of relevant legislations and codes of practice and how to apply the organisations policies and procedures to this. Also to appropriately plan, do, record and review activities and ensure equality and diversity of all children are taken into consideration for this.…

Without having good communication we wouldn’t be able to gain good information, form relationships, and even maintain friendships. Babies and children reply on adults to be good interpreters of their body language and first words. To be able to communicate effectively with professionals helps to work together in the interest of the children’s wellbeing. Children can easily pick up on poor relationships and negativity which could result in the child becoming unsettled and anxious if they do sense tension in the setting. Communication is also essential for all children’s learning and social development. As a practitioner in an early years setting they have a vital role in supporting communication development of all children especially those who tend to have speech problems or a communication disability. There are projects out there to help children such as the Effective Provision of Pre-School Education (EPPE) and Peers Early Education Partnership (PEEP). These projects highlight that long term impacts that high quality early years provisions can impact on young children. Communication in childcare is one of the best ways to provide the best care for the child on both ends - for parents and providers. Although this is a really good way to provide the best care for the child but it makes it easier to build a relationship between parents and other professionals. Using training and development helps to provide and develop new skills, attitudes and practices of a competent teacher.

‘Early years practitioners have a key role to play in working with parents to support their young children. This should include identifying learning needs and responding quickly to any difficulties. Wherever appropriate, practitioners should work together with professionals from other agencies, such as local and community health and social services, to identify needs and provide the best learning opportunities for children. Partnership working may be required in particular for a child with disabilities or a child who is looked after in care.’ (Early Years Foundation Stage Practice Guidance 2008 pg. 6)…
As a childcare worker it is important to develop professional relationships with children, families, colleagues and other professionals. One way I can develop a professional relationship with parents is to always be approachable, to listen to what they say, be honest with them and always keep them up to date with any changes. This gives them confidence to speak to me about any concerns they have. 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.…
1.2 If we don’t communicate well it limits the ability to connect with each other making you feel isolated and not part of a team, but the bit we need to think about is if there is no communication through staff we may miss the needs of the child. Positive communications and relationships with a number of people not just parents/carers but without side agencies too will all work together. If you have good communication skills then your relationship with the child/parent/carer will be good. When you communicate clearly and effectively then this allows others to do the same and then sharing information, expressing your needs/concerns/feeling, and not feeling left out will become easy.…
It is important to work in partnership with others because all agencies can share information and concerns to create a holistic view about children and young people in their care when any need arises, to help to keep the children safe from harm and promote their welfare, to diagnose a special need quickly in children and get the help that is needed to the child/family as soon as possible without confusing the child or their families.
