explain the partnership model of working with carers.

i have written so far...
Parents and carers look out for the child in the best way that they can, but if they see things differently about what the child can achieve this may prove difficult. A family-centred approach to child care promotes cultural diversity and gives an understanding of children's culture and home environment, the way in which parents raise their children, and the objectives of this care. Childcare settings can make adjustments to children's day care regime that accommodate parents' cultural requirements.

is this right? anyone got anymore tips?:idea:

It is now recognised that parents play an essential role in the care and education of their children. The best outcomes for children are seen when parents and practitioners work together. This forms the basis for the model of partnership with parents and carers. Practitioners and parents will have their own roles when working with children but they can come together and share ideas and information about the best way to move their children forward. Many setting offer an ‘open door’ approach where parents are welcome in the setting at any time. Children’s learning journeys, observations and assessments are shared with parents. Working in partnership with parents is essential to ensuring a child’s development.

Hope this helps a little. x
