Caring for a baby or toddler is an extremely important job. All children deserve to be cared for with respect, right from the day they are born. This course is for in-home caregivers (nannies or domestic helpers), offering knowledge and practice to equip them with the skills to handle young children confidently. Caregivers are also shown how to promote a child's development holistically, including providing quality interaction and play.
The Competent Nanny course is suitable for caregivers of children between 0-3, and includes a 4 hour theory session and a 1.5 hour practical hands-on session in a playgroup setting.
Topics of study include:
• Attachment theory and the importance of the secure base
• Respectful caregiving such as diapering, bathing, dressing and feeding
• Creating safe space for play and learning
• The value of independent play
• Gentle discipline, including limit setting and natural consequences
• Supporting natural cognitive, socio-emotional and physical development.
