Communicating With Parents About Their Child's Sleep Routine

Post by Tahlika » Wed Feb 01, 2017 11:48 am

Hi i am currently doing my diploma I'm on my first assignment and i am stuck on a question and was wondering if you could help.

QUESTION:
Creating a sleep routine for children is important for a child's overall wellbeing.
List the ways in which you can communicate with parents about their child's sleep and rest routines.

ANSWER:
I was thinking maybe
keeping lines of communication open .
establishing a relationship with the parents so they feel comfortable approaching you.
maybe start a book that outlines how their childs day has been what they ate how long they slept for and maybe some concerns if any.




i feel like that won't be good enough or i haven't fully understood the question



Any help would be much appreciated
Tahlika.

This question is asking what are the different ways you can let the family know about their child's sleep/rest routine at the centre...

Such as having a sleep routine checklist which you fill out for the parent to view when they pick up their child.
Having a communication book to let the parent know.
Sending a quick email about each child's day etc.
