CHCCN305A - Providing Care to Babies
Posted: Wed Apr 04, 2012 11:51 pm
Hi Everyone,
I am new to this site, but have checked to see if any of the answers that have already been posted help so that I don't waste anyones time.
I am having some difficuties with these questions and I was hoping that someone could help/check these answers.
Question 4: Suggest carer strategies that could be used to respond to ot support the infant and the family.
Almas (5 months) - Almas is having difficulty coping in the child care setting Even though the carer has tried to follow Almas' home routine she tends to be restless and fretful during the day, sleeping for only short periods of time. Her parents report that she is not sleeping at night and they are becoming sleep-deprived.
- I was thinking that maybe changing Almas' routine slightly might help her sleep better and maybe suggesting her parents check her room at home as maybe something in there is interupting her sleep.
Noah (18 months) - Noah has been attending child care for 12 months and is usually happy and settled. Recently Noah's parents have been going through a difficult time. Dad lost his job and this has created financial pressures and tension between the parents. Noah's mother has confided in the carer that she and her husband are constantly fighting about money. Noah has become anxious and clingy. He now finds it difficult to separate on arrival and will cling to the carer when mum or dad come to collect him in the afternoon.
- Suggest that the parents go to counselling
- Suggest that parents try not to fight within Noah's hearing

Thank you very much for reading this question.
