Importance of the First Five Years
Importance of the First Five Years
Think of your child as a sponge -- they will absorb all possible information around them at amazing speed. Which is why it's imperative to create an exciting and challenging environment for them. These first five years will form the fundamental building blocks of their future health, happiness, growth, development and learning achievement in school. This is also the time when they will learn how to interact, how to build and maintain social relationships. What they experience today is what they will exhibit tomorrow.

Children are excited to take part in all the activities the childminder plans and suggests for them. She knows them all extremely well. She plans activities that follow their interests and which promote their next steps in learning most effectively. Children are also highly motivated to take part in spontaneous activities. They become fully involved in construction activities. The childminder skillfully uses mathematical language and descriptive words to extend their vocabulary. She helps children to think about how they can solve problems for themselves. Children of different ages and abilities are able to make the most of the same activity because the childminder successfully differentiates during her individual interactions with them. Highly efficient, detailed observations and assessments of the progress each child makes links directly with the planning of activities, to continually build on what children already know and to widen their experiencesClick this text to start editing.

Children immerse themselves in the extremely well resourced and stimulating environment. The childminder encourages them to make choices about what they do and children are very confident to select their own toys and books. They are very familiar with the daily routines and their behaviour is excellent. They listen to the childminder who has a very consistent approach which helps children to know what is expected of them. Children rapidly develop an awareness of healthy lifestyles as they wash their hands at the sink and help to prepare their snack. They pour corn kernels into the popcorn maker, listen for the sound, and watch with wonder as the popcorn appears. Children show a very strong attachment to the childminder. Younger children snuggle into her when they are tired and readily fall asleep. Older children giggle along with the childminder as they make jokes together during their play.
