Q-role play your approach toward a new family who has entered the service to leave their child for the first time in your care.write a script about it.
My Ans-
what you would say to welcome and reassure the family?
I will greet the family with a smiling face and will cuddle the child and i will tell the parents to assure that " I look forward to getting to know you and the child better in the coming weeks. we value your feedback and want to make your family's time here as enjoyable as possible". then I will also give the family a telephone call during the first morning to tell them how their child is settling ,i will give a first day feedback note also as acknowledgement. this will include information about the child's play experience, including what they enjoyed most and their eating drinking and sleep details.
-----------------------------
what would you say to interact but not threaten the child?
I will Talk to the child about what will happen when they attend the service, reassure them that parents will be back, and talk about what they can do during the day. I will not ignore the child's distress i will respond and comfort them in a calm manner. If I will be calm,child will feel more secure.
------------------------------
how you would help the family settle the child into an activity?
i will ask the parents to Arrive at the center early enough so that they have time to stick around for a few minutes. i will ask the child to take them on a tour of the classroom when they drop her off. Let her tell her parents what she sees, "i will request the parents to spend as much time as they can with their child and help the child in selecting her favourite activity and also spend some time playing it along with the child and when they see that child is playing peacefully then they can leave quietly
------------------------------
how you would help the child seprate from the family?
The child will be taken to a morning activity or play area by the carer and assisted in saying goodbye to the parents. If the child is distressed, i will take the child to a window to wave goodbye, and are comforted in a manner appropriate to each child.If child gets a little upset i will encourage her to cuddle her fav toy. we both then go into the playroom and sitting on the sofa, nursing both Bella and toy i will read a book until child settles. Once she is settled i will help her to choose a toy to play with and place her on the mat.
----------------------------
please suggest that am I on the right track in my response?thanks alot

Re: Approach To A New Family Leaving Child First Time
Your responses are good! The only thing:
I won't recommend that. Parents need to say "goodbye" to a child because then every time a child can't see their parents (even at home) they will become upset. A child needs to be aware that their parents are leaving, rather than the parents sneaking away, once a child is settled in an activity. The parents can give a quick kiss, say goodbye and leave.
