As a child-minder my aim is to provide a safe environment. In my home I provide:…
To establish and maintain a safe, healthy learning environment I model safety practices and healthy routines in an environment that supports development and growth in these areas. My goal is to provide a clean healthy environment that meets each child’s physical needs. Making sure the classroom and playground are clean and safe at all times reduces the number of injuries of children while they are in my care. One of the ways I do this is by supervising children at all times by sight and sound even during nap times. Making sure all outlets are covered so children can’t access them. I make sure inside as well as outside there is nothing children can harm themselves on such as sharp objects or small items they can choke on. I ensure that all chemicals and cleaning supplies are put away out of the reach of children or stored in locked cabinets. I am certified in First Aid and CPR, which makes me knowledgeable of caring for accidents or injuries.…
When providing a healthy and safe environment both inside and outside the nursery, there are factors myself and other practitioners need to consider; individual children and any specific needs they may have, for example at my work place we a baby with Prader-Willi syndrome, a rare genetic condition that causes restricted growth, poor core muscle strength, learning difficulties, behavioural problems such as temper tantrums or stubbornness and a permanent feeling of hunger which will start between the age of 2 and 8 years old. The practitioners who work with the baby must always consider her needs in relation to her condition, for example as the baby has poor core strength, she will be supported be using a doughnut shaped pillow and other toys that can support her weight such as play station, please see examples of both below.…
I can't believe you were told you "over child proofed!" My son is eight months old and even a glass on the table is potential for an unintentional injury. Exploration is one thing, which is why there are child safe toys and items. However, letting a child get into things that are obviously not for them is just asking for an injury. For example, a lot of people have asked why I won't let my son play with game cases, which a lot of people do because they seem pretty safe. The problem is they have small plastic pieces that can break off and be a choking hazard. So, a lot of people think you are over child proofing when you aren't just locking up the obvious things (cleaners, medications, etc) but really, you are just considering all of the options…
If it is a kitchen, set out rules for children, such as utensil use, near cooker when lit, what happens if emergency etc. General behaviour when near hot appliances.…
The age, needs and abilities of children impact significantly on what is safe or unsafe for them to come into contact with. For instance an eight month old baby will be expected to pick up objects within their reach and put them to their mouth so when planning a safe environment for them it will be important to keep small objects that present a choking hazard out of their reach. It is with this in mind that most practitioners will choose toys and materials safely.…
The general environment of the home setting is clean, tidy, well organised and free of obstacles. Fire doors are kept clear, and stair gates used on the stairs, kitchen and my dog’s cubby hole. Normal room temperature is kept with adjustable radiators and radiator covers are used in play areas. Rooms are well ventilated and window locks used when airing the house. Air quality is pure as there is a no smoking policy in the house or garden. Pet odours are eliminated through an air purifier, oxygenating plants (out of reach of small children) daily thorough cleaning routines and natural air fresheners. Rugs are secure to the floor and intact. All glass is kite marked and sharp corner protectors are used. The fire is disabled but the surround is covered. Plug sockets are not overloaded and wires are kept tidy, clean and secured safely away from children. Empty sockets are covered. The floor is kept free from debris or sharp toys to step on. Spillages are cleaned and dried immediately and safety precautions taken at all times. The Boiler is off limits to children and annually serviced. Water temperature is kept low to prevent scalds and young children are supervised when in the bathroom. Toiletries and sharp items such as nail scissors…
P3.1: The radiators can get hot for the children or children can get fingers caught so a radiator cover was placed on all the radiators to avoid this. A paper clip was on the floor I picked it up and threw it away, this is a hazard as a child could have swallowed it. The vacuum cleaner can only be done at a certain time as the wire can cause the children to trip or fall. Also the staircase and some of the doorways have guards for children, so the children don’t wander of or fall down the stairs. In the baby room there is a soft carpet so the babies can freely crawl on the floor. A child using a pair of scissors, and a member of staff should supervise the child also children safety scissors should be used.…
While caring for infants and toddlers my goal is to provide a safe environment for exploration by following safety policies and procedures. Throughout the day all spaces are checked for hazards and kept free of clutter to avoid problems during an emergency. Their environment should always be inspected for choking hazards. A daily routine is maintained to ensure the indoor and outdoor play areas are free of hazardous exposures. A Daily indoor/outdoor checklist form is completed twice daily to document room conditions. As a caregiver it’s important to provide children with a sense of security through words and actions, which encourage exploration and support developmental growth.…
Growing up is tough; especially when you are alone and young. It forces you to fend for yourself against the world. Instead of playing with your friends, you spend your time figuring out where your next meal is coming from. Which is a sad and scary truth; few stop to think of these poor souls that get such an unfortunate fate. In Banana Yoshimoto’s Kitchen, the character Mikage undergoes many of changes, but one thing throughout this book that does not change is her love of kitchens. Her parents passed away when she was young and her grandmother raised her. When her grandmother also passed away, she became depressed, listless, and orphaned. In the beginning of the book she is lonely, since none of her blood relatives are still alive. After she moves in with the Tanabe's, however, she finds the courage to face life again. She has a strong bond with kitchens; they seem to give her a calming feeling and help to ease her loneliness. Kitchens serve as a comfort for her. Throughout the course of this novel Kitchen, Banana Yoshimoto depicts Mikage as a person of great morals, who loves kitchens, and is incredibly strong-willed.…
SAFE- To maintain a safe environment for infants I make sure that all small toys and objects that could cause an infant to choke are removed from the area.
