Learn & Grow

Our caretakers will be better able to help your children if you know what to expect from their normal development. Each child matures at their own speed, but there is an overarching pattern to their growth and progress. Your child's physical appearance, physical abilities, mental processes, language skills, and worldview will all change as they grow. What they do to deal with their emotions and how they relate to and get along with others are also critical components of their growth. When your child is developing abilities and honing existing ones, they are developing. In terms of development, each successive stage expands upon its predecessor and lays the groundwork for the next.


Taking Note of Growth and Learning Issues

Most parents may worry about their child's development if they don't notice the expected growth and improvement. Keep in mind that you, as parents, are generally the first to detect issues. You may have noticed that your newborn or preschooler is not sitting up like other infants, or talking like other toddlers, while you engage in regular activities with your child. You could be concerned that he or she doesn't have the stamina of their brothers or sisters and they tire easily. Problems with health, sleep, or food, as well as behavioral issues like crying fits, are another source of anxiety.


Patience and Planning

Having patience is a valuable trait since children learn and grow at various rates. Young children may also find it difficult to adapt to the frequent shifts in the contexts in which they learn. Our professional caregivers could improve your children's adaptation to these changes by modeling patience. By enrolling your children with us, we focus on the development stages where children benefit from patience while interacting with children, parents, and extended family members. Not only do we have other responsibilities besides keeping an eye on the kids. We also need to develop appropriate lessons and teaching strategies for your youngsters. We value the ability to design lessons and classroom activities that foster students' mental and physical growth. Our experts, meanwhile, must schedule our work in advance if we're going to achieve the necessary growth and development.


Communication and Making Decisions

As the kids in our care start to express themselves, it's vital that they develop excellent communication skills. We utilize a combination of verbal and nonverbal cues from children to determine when assistance is required. We also hone their communication skills by regularly updating you as their parents on their child's growth and improvement. On a daily basis, our staff who care for our kids must make many tough choices. To be an effective teacher, we need to be able to utilize one’s judgment and make decisions quickly, whether we are determining which lessons to teach that day or how to resolve a problem amongst students. Situations in the classroom can be a terrific teaching opportunity since they force us to think quickly on our feet and apply what we've learned.


Key Areas for Growth and Learning

It's crucial to provide a solid groundwork for your children's future success in the formative years when they're still working hard to accomplish their developmental goals. The days after the birth of your baby will be filled with joy as you watch them develop in amazing ways. Because of how fast children change in their first five years of life, monitoring their growth and progress is crucial. The five key domains of a child's development—cognitive, social and emotional, linguistic, motor, and kinesthetic—are where he or she will reach important milestones or acquire necessary skills with Tender Oak Child Care in your corner.
