In my nursery each member of staff have a base room. in each room there will be a fully qualified and a trainee who both have a crb check, the trainee will not be left unattended. If a member of staff CRB has not came back yet they will not be able to do nappy changes until then. All members of staff must go on a first aid and food hygiene course , there are also lots of other courses that members of staff will get to go on too. For example in my room I have a little boy with severe food allergies which unfortanelty is life or death so the little boy has to have an epi pen with him at all times which is kept in his bag in my room and there is another one kept in the office. If the little boy was to have a reaction it could be a very serious situation and all members of staff should be aware of how serious it could be, which is why we all had epi pen training at work so that everyone would feel comfortable giving the epi pen if necessary fortunately he has never needed his pen, however he has had a reaction i have had to give him pireton which brings the reaction, I will then phone his mom to come and collect him straight away. There is also a few children with asthma in our nursery so we have also had asthma training. the childrens safety is my priority in nursery however accidents do happen from time to time so if a child was to have an accident i would care for the childs needs making sure they were okay, I would also have to fill out an accidident form explaining what happened and how it happened then the parents would have to sign to say they are aware of the accident. If a child was to come into nursery with a scratch or a bruise I would have to ask the parents how it happened, but if I was unsure about what the parents had told me or f the marks kept appearing I would then speak to my manager an say I have a for concerns, I would have to keep a record of the bruises the child

As practitioners, everyone in the childcare setting must know what their health and safety policies in their settings are.…

    My goal is to prevent or reduce injuries while the children are in my care. This is important because young children are often not aware of hazards in their area. One of the ways to do this is by supervising the children at all times. You should always be able to see and hear the children. Another way I can do this is by checking the childcare environment, both inside and outside, every morning check that outlet plugs are in place, and there are no broken objects. I would also use a weekly checklist and make sure everything is in place. In the outside, I check for broken equipment or sharp objects. I am trained in emergency evacuation procedures and plans to remove all children from the classroom and/or building in the event of a tornado or fire. I ensure that all chemicals and cleaning supplies are put away out of the reach of children or stored in locked cabinets to prevent injury or poisoning.…

    Parents have responsibility for their child we as practitioner must not usurp that role as we only play a temporary role in their lives, parents have the lifelong role and centre role. Carers are responsible for their children but sometimes these individuals rights come into conflict with duty of care. Dietary needs can cause dilemmas if a child has certain dietary needs and these have not been met. Like giving a child pork when it is against their religion to eat that type of meat it is our duty of care that, that child be given their religious dietary needs as its their individual right. A child with a disability may not be able to access all areas of the preschool like outdoor play or resources, the setting will need to adapt as their individual rights are not being met. Risk taking could come as a conflict; children have the right to experiment and experience challenge which helps them with learning and development. Children need an element of risk to be able to learn risk assessment for themselves. But if a practitioner becomes over protective then this is conflicting with their duty of care and the child’s individual rights. If a member of staff neglected their duty of care and was a little rough with the handling of a child this would be in conflict with child’s rights the right to share information that is a safeguarding concern overrides the need to have parental permission from the parent. The safety of the child comes first. But as practitioners we have a duty of care to the child. This becomes a real dilemma if you feel the need to contact children’s services. When the conflicts arise we must be able to respond sensitively and follow…

    At my work placement I witnessed numerous hazards most of them were common liquid spillages from this I acted reliable and did the appropriate action by removing the children from the area, placing a wet floor sign over the spillage so no one will slip and injure themselves then by using warm water and adding disinfector to mop up the wet floor. Secondly the location that I have chosen were the children’s toilets I went in there to clean my hands and the state of the toilets were awful they didn’t flush the toilets and they had stains. Also the tissues were left on the floor and all over the toilet seats, from this I removed all the tissues then I notified a member of staff about the situation. Thirdly another hazard that I saw at my work placement was that a child ate a bread stick that was on the floor with other pieces of bread sticks underneath the snack table, when I witnessed it I went to get a dustpan and brush immediately to clear up the area from underneath the table and I also told the children to remain seated while they were eating or drinking. Fourthly the last hazard that I saw was when an autistic child hit the mirror in their dressing corner. As the child had autism, at times he was very aggressive and violent. As soon as I saw the broken mirror/ glasses on the floor, I went and cleared up the floor with broom stick. Whilst clearing up the floor I informed the other practitioner so they are aware of the broken pieces of glass. I also told the practitioner to remove all the children from that room and take them in another room for their health and safety.…

    If there are specific problems that need to be addressed then this needs to be done immediately which in turn will decrease the chances of risks to the children, the staff or parents of the children. Improving the problems that may arise is extremely important and an example may include increasing the choices of activities the children are allowed to do or even. This links in with my research project as if one of the staff that is my room finds a specific problem about the nursery then they need to discuss this with the manager and find a solution to their problem. For example this could be that the children are not getting enough exercise and this could worry members of staff so something would need to be put in place to help improve the health and fitness of the young…

    The practitioner’s responsibility in a professional relationship is that they should be able to work as part of a team and provide a high quality care and education for children, you would do this by following legislations. By following all your settings principles, policies and procedures you would be promoting and encouraging the children's safety. You as a practitioner would always maintain a high level of safety by following the settings policies and procedures and be being aware of any emergency procedures. Also if you believe a child is being harmed you should always report it as the child may be being abused etc. . . "Policies in early years' settings are there to guide the actions which practitioners need to take to fulfil the vision and aims of the setting and to act as a point of reference against which decisions can be made." Early Years Update. Also for practitioners to be in professional relationship they should be able to keep confidentiality, effective communication and professionalism. The reason a practitioner should keep confidentiality about the children in the group or the parents, is because each child is different with different needs. If the practitioner went around talking about children to other parents, they would tell other parents that, for example: her daughter can’t do that while mine could do it a year ago. This would make the parents judgemental about other children and upset the parent of the child. You do not share information with any other people other than care staff, unless there is an emergency where medical practitioners may need to access the information. A When talking to a parent you should exchange information in an appropriate area, so in a spare room this is to keep confidentiality and if any information is given ensure that the information is kept out of view from other parents.

    E2) the procedures that will keep a child safe in a setting and reducing accidents are that all staff checks that there is no spillages on the floor. Meaning if you do notice a spillage on the floor don’t just leave the spillage for someone else to clean up for you as by then a child could have already slipped and injured themselves. If you have not seen the spillage and a child trips or injures themselves then you should always get another member of staff to check the area were the child’s been and see if they can see the course of the…
