Children’s Health and Safety

Post by landa123 » Thu Sep 28, 2017 6:19 pm

Hey, Just wondering if someone could please help me with these questions:

⦁ What process would you follow if you found that you have children with additional needs in your care (i.e. skills, age mix, dynamics, and size of the group of children), and as a result, the level of risk involved in activities was high?


⦁ What are the ‘Standards of Infant formula’ in Australia?

10. List the three (3) key points to consider when introducing solid foods to infants.

11. Describe two (2) ways you, as an assistant educator, can contribute to the healthy eating/nutrition policies and procedures at your child care service.

You could include strategies you will implement to support the children with additional needs in your care. For example:

- Using picture and words signs to label different areas
- Use visual cues around the room
- Offer a quiet space for children to spend some time doing individual activities
- Place toys and activities on easily accessible shelves

Here is some more information:
