Hi Rainey,
OH&S can be a tricky area to understand. Here is some info that should help you out with your assignment:
List and briefly describe the various legislation, standards and guidelines used to manage the health and safety of children and adults in children’s services.
Children's Service Regulations 2004
Occupational Health and Safety Act & Regulations 2000
Workplace Injury Management
Workers Compensation Act 1998.
List the range of requirements that are included to minimise the risks to children‘s health and safety.
A member of our team has already provided the answer to this question in another topic on this forum called "chccn511a Health and Safety Help... PLEASE". I am providing you with the following link to check out the response to your question. You will find it in the second post (in pink by L.A), just scroll down to the bottom of the post.

For each term give a practical example of its meaning in relation to daily workplace practice.
Due Diligence:
This is referred to when you undertake an investigation and assessment of yourself and the childcare industry. You have a responsibility to yourself, your family and the children you want to provide care for to do the very best job that you can do. For e.g. completing a weekly self - evaluation.
Duty of Care:
It is obvious that carers in child care owe a duty of care to the children in their care. Children rely on their carers to ensure that they are properly cared for.It is not just children to whom the duty is owed, but also
their families. Parents expect that carers will use their expertise to care for their children appropriately. For e.g. changing nappies, providing a safe environment, providing suitable mealtimes, supervising etc.
Cheers
