Educators can create an environment where caregivers respond promptly to an infant's cries, providing comfort, food, or a diaper change as needed. This helps build trust and a sense of security in the infant. Ensure that the environment is safe for exploration. Provide age-appropriate toys and materials that encourage sensory exploration, such as soft toys, rattles, and mobiles. 1 0 / 3 0 / 2 0 2 3 TAY LO R H E N D E R S O N 3 Positive Guidance: Educators Responsive Caregiving Stimulating Environment

This helps infants develop a secure attachment to their caregivers. “Positive guidance practices emphasize teaching problem-solving and social skills. They build children's sense of belonging and membership in the family child care home” (Virtual Lab School, n.d.). Encourage sensory play at home by providing safe, age-appropriate toys and objects for exploration. 3 / 1 / 2 0 X X S A M P L E F O O T E R T E X T 4 Positive Guidance: Family Responsive Parenting Sensory Play
