Communicating with families Lara is the first child of mother Alexa and father Ben. Alexa and Ben are both full-time teachers. Lara has been attending the service for 10 weeks. During the orientation period, as well as completing an enrolment form, Alexa and Ben completed a detailed online questionnaire about Lara (similar in detail to the example shown in Figure 8.4, on page 276 of The Big Picture ). Lara has settled into care quickly and has an easy temperament. Lara has two sleeps each day, sleeping on average one hour in the morning and up to an hour and a half after lunch. As well as her bottles, Lara now has solid food. Educator Edith worked with Alexa to identify the foods that could be offered to Lara. On arrival to the service each morning Edith checks with Alexa as to when she had her last bottle and if there are any changes with her feeding schedule. Each day Edith records Lara’s milk, water and food intake to share with her parents via the service’s intranet. Educators also record nappy changes and sleep periods. When Alexa arrives to drop Lara at the service, she signs Lara in using the iPad and asks if she can speak privately to educator Edith. Edith can see that Alexa is upset, so she takes Alexa to the director’s office to talk. Alexa tells Edith that Ben’s mother was tak en to hospital in a critical condition last night and is not expected to survive. Alexa is worried that Lara will pick up on the family’s grief and that this will unsettle her. Edith: I’m so sorry to hear about your mother -in- law. It’s a very distressing and difficult time for the whole family. Lara may sense that you and Ben are upset and that may make her feel anxious. She knows she is loved and as long as you or Ben are around she’ll be fine. It’s important to allow yourself to grieve and take care of yourself. Lara may become a little unsettled, but young children are very resilient. Thanks for sharing this with me. I’ll keep a close eye on Lara and give her some extra cuddles. Please feel free to call me anytime if you’re worried about her.

CHC30121 Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care Page 44 of 45 Question 41 Read the scenario and answer the question below. Individual differences II Mrs Varma moved with her husband and children to Australia from India two years ago. Her son Himansh (20 months) is in the toddler room. Mrs Varma tells educator Sawsan that she is unhappy about the practice of allowing the toddlers to feed themselves at morning tea and lunch. At home Himansh is spoon fed by his mother. Mrs Varma tells educator Sawsan that she worries Himansh is not getting enough to eat. ‘In my culture we feed our children until they go to school.’ Sawsan thanks Mrs Varma for sharing her concerns. She tells Mrs Varma that the toddlers are encouraged to feed themselves using a spoon or their fingers. However, she agrees that an educator will sit with Himansh and help him with his feeding. Educator Sawsan later shares the conversation she has had with Mrs Varma with her director Helen. Helen: You did the right thing agreeing to help Himansh with his feeding. Even though we encourage the toddlers to develo p their independence by feeding themselves, it’s not something that happens in every culture. In fact, in many cultures a child Himansh’s age would not be encouraged to do anything for himself. a. State what the educator did to accommodate the family’s c are practice? Educator Sawsan agrees that an educator will sit with Himansh and help him with his feeding. b. Using this scenario as an example, explain why it is best practice to ask families to share information about their care practices for babies and toddlers? Respect for diversity includes family, cultural and language diversity to make sure that family feels welcome and support the development of the child.
