Scenario: Asher and Tara - Separation Routine

Scenario: Asher
Asher (3 years 3 months) and his mother, Tara are new to the area. Asher and Tara have been on several orientation visits to the center and Asher has interacted well with the Educators and children. Today will be the first time Asher’s mother will leave him at the center.
Tara is anxious that Asher will cry when she leaves. During the orientation visits Tara had attempted to leave Asher for a short time but he became too distressed. Tara has secured a part-time job which she is due to start tomorrow.
Asher likes to do puzzles, build with the blocks and play with the train set. There are several other children in the group who are extremely social who have approached Asher to play. Asher appears to be developing well and has been happy and relaxed in his mother’s presence.
Asher has a rabbit called ‘Bob’ that he carries with him at all times.[/size]

a) List the questions you might ask Asher’s mother to help you develop a separation routine/ritual?

Developing a routine means that you will do the same things in the morning when Asher comes to care. This will begin from when Asher wakes up to when he is dropped off at the centre.... So a few questions you could ask will be...

1) What do you do before coming to the centre?
2) Do you eat breakfast at home?
3) Is Asher allowed to keep BOB with him, at the centre etc.

Hope this gives you some ideas!
