- Fill out questionnaire based on child's needs, routines and preferences.
- Have individual communication book for each child's family brought in daily.
- Do parent interviews twice a year.

Hey Ravyn,

It's good to hear you're trying to get your assignments completed and out of the way... :D

After reading your question, you had a great point when asking about the importance of collaborating with children's families and co-workers in childcare.

So I will write an article for you and other childcare professionals to get a better understanding on how to collaborate and build positive relationships with childcare staff and parents. This article will also provide you with practical strategies and tips, you can use in collaborating with families and staff. Hopefully this gives you an idea on what to write, in your assignment :mrgreen: .

I will add this article here in the next 2 days or so.

Hey Ravyn,

Just to let you know that I've written an article and its now uploaded live on this site. Have a read: Building Positive Relationships In Childcare

I hope this gives you a better understanding of how to collaborate with childcare professionals and parents :D .

You can also have a read on these too:

1) Child care Duties: In this I have talked about responsibilities and duties, professionalism & working ethics as a childcare worker, etc..

2) Developing Positive Relationship with Children: This covers the strategies to encourage children and developing positive relationships with children in a child care center.

I hope this helps you out! :mrgreen:
