Philosophy provided by Judy's Family Child Care
Philosophy On Discipline
Children are redirected and given age/developmentally appropriate explanations of expected behavior. Time-outs are used with older children when necessary, but positive guidance is the preferred method.
Discipline is:
(1) Individualized and consistent for each child;
(2) Appropriate to the child’s level of understanding; and
(3) Directed toward teaching the child acceptable behavior and self-control.
Philosophy On Teaching
I BELIEVE THE WORK OF CHILDREN IS PLAY AND THEY LEARN BEST IN AN ACTIVE PLAY ENVIRONMENT WHERE CONCEPTS CAN BE INTRODUCED AS THEY RELATE NATURALLY TO WHAT IS GOING ON AROUND THEM. CHILD CARE SHOULD BE A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN PARENT AND PROVIDER WORKING TOGETHER TO PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE WHOLE CHILD. A MUTUAL RESPECT AND GOOD COMMUNICATION ARE VITAL TO THIS RELATIONSHIP.
Children need to be surrounded by opportunities for learning. The first five years are critical for brain development and children need the love and consistency of a secure attachment to their caretaker to thrive. By providing the materials and opportunities to them on a daily basis, I strive to instill a love of learning and a joy in the world around them. We do have structured activities and circle time, but we also have plenty of time to create and explore individually and as a group.
Philosophy On Toilet-Training
Potty Trained: The child is capable of using the toilet, but it is the adult who is trained to get the child to the bathroom on time. Accidents occur often. It is the first step in the entire process.
Potty Learned: The child is not only capable of using the toilet, but has the developmental ability to express the need to go. Accidents occur, but infrequently.
If potty training is begun when your child is ready, the task is easy and quick. Thirty months of age is a good rule of thumb to start checking for signs of readiness. These include: longer stretches between dirty and wet diapers; waking up from a nap dry; uncomfortable at being wet or dirty; able to pull pants up and down; able to express the need to use the toilet.
