1.4 explain organisational or regulatory procedures that protect babies, young children and practitioners when providing personal care why these are necessary
As a childminder, childcare provider, manager, or member of staff in a day care setting, we are in a unique position to observe any changes in a child’s behaviour or appearance. If there are any reasons to suspect that a child in our care is being abused or neglected, or is likely to be abused, there is a statutory responsibility under The Children Act 2004 Section 11 and Working Together to Safeguard Children 2006 to take action on behalf of the child, and to contact an agency that has a ‘duty’ to make enquiries. We have training where we learn the policies and procedures, we share concerns at meetings. We also are not allowed mobile phones we have to switch them off. The safe guarding policy, states expectations on how to report and record suspected abuse, how to detect abuse with signs and symptoms and how to deal with allegations of abuse against practitioners. The policies and procedures are in place to outline clear expectations of practitioners which enables children and young babies to be protected during personal care routines. CRB checks are a regulation that must be abided to protect young babies and children from harm during personal care routines, CRB checks are a document that is applied for, checking that the person specified has not been convicted of any illegal offences, this enables organisations to check new employees of any criminal offences and it will also highlight offenders to increase child protection.
2.3 explain the principles of effective toilet training and how this is incorporated into routines.
• Children need lots of encouragement and phraise. They will repeat an action if they are rewarded.
• Try to treat the child with respect and avoid making them fell guilty.
• Work in partnership with the child family and carers as children need continuity wgeb they are learning a new skill
• Each child is an individual ,so you will need to be flexible in your approach.
• Only start to train the child when they are ready
• Always try to positive and supportive of the child’s effort and this will also promote self-esteem
• When children are learning to toilet train they need to familiarise themselves with signals to go. They therefore cannot hold on so need quick access to the toilet. For example dress the child in the clothes that can be easily removed, leave a toilet seat on the toilet.
