Early Years Private, Voluntary & Independent Settings
I maintain close contact with each child's family, key workers at pre-school, class teachers at school and any other important people involved in their lives; I also form strong bonds with the children so that I am aware of any changes which may impact their lives.
I complete a daily diary for each child I care for using an online system that parents can access on a computer or mobile device. I am always available to discuss a child's progress or parental concerns either over the phone or in a face to face meeting at a mutually convenient time.
Every child learns in a different way and I try to ensure that each activity I provide is accessible to all children in my care regardless of any additional needs.
I work closely with parents and other professionals involved in an additional needs child's day to day life and create a plan relevant to that child.
I work closely with parents and other professionals involved in an additional needs child's day to day life and create a plan relevant to that child.
All EYFS children's progress is monitored regularly and reports sent to parents. I also arrange face to face meetings with parents at least twice a year, more often if required.
I ensure that all activities I plan will be accessible to all children in my care, I risk assess and work with parents to ensure that I have covered all areas that a particular child may need support with and work with other professionals to get additional support/equipment if required
Currently my home is not set up for wheelchair users, however if a parent wished to send a child who had mobility difficulties to me I would work with the parents/other professionals to ensure that child could access my home.
I work closely with my local pre-school and primary school to ensure that all children have a smooth a transition as possible, this includes regular visits, discussion with parents, child and teachers, role play activities and books.
I ask for feedback from parents as and when something in my setting changes, I keep up to date with any legislation changes and I spend time doing regular self evaluation/reflection on my practice in all areas, including SEN
