NCAC - Puting Children First<br /> <a href="http://www.ncac.gov.au/resources/pcf_past_issues" rel="nofollow">http://www.ncac.gov.au/resources/pcf_past_issues</a> I found a lot of factsheets in the site,so have a look and see how you go ok.I hope this helps let me know I can have a look and see what else I might have. Sorry if you get 2 replies I wrote 1 yesterday but was'nt to sure if it went through so i do apologise </p> <p> Kerri </p> http://www.australianchildcarers.com.au/forum/topic/33#post-80 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 02:45:03 +0000 lucas 80@http://www.australianchildcarers.com.au/forum/ <p>Hello Kara,</p> <p>Welcome to the child care forums.</p> <p>I can't really give you any professional advice, but I can tell you what worked pretty well for our youngest.</p> <p>Nicole took Jorja to day care for the first few days, and spent most of the day there with her. Jorja was a pretty clingy kid, but playing with the other kids and the carers with the support of her mother there really made her realise that there was nothing to be scared of, in fact it was a pretty fun place to be.</p> <p>On the downside of this I guess, is that it probably won't work for everyone. Unfortunately not everyone has the time to put into it, and it would probably not work for infants.</p> <p>It did work great for us though. Jorja now loves day care, and goes off quite happily. Most of the time... </p> http://www.australianchildcarers.com.au/forum/topic/33#post-78 Mon, 24 Aug 2009 03:46:21 +0000 Kara 78@http://www.australianchildcarers.com.au/forum/ <p>I have been trying to find information and ideas about settling children into the childcare setting to no avail. Does anybody have any ideas about how to do it right and tips on reducing separation anxiety. thanks </p>
