Positive guidance contributes to your child’s emotional wellness as they grow and learn! When caregivers and parents create predictable and consistent routines for their children, like preparing lunch together, eating meals together or reading books together, it helps children feel safe and secure. Routines also help build a strong social and emotional foundation for children. |

Positive Guidance contributes to your child’s emotional wellness as they grow and learn! When children experience the natural and logical consequences of their behaviour, it helps them to learn cause and effect and provides opportunities for parents to help their child to understand consequences. |

In a child’s early years, they are beginning to learn how to express their feelings and emotions. Young children are watching how their caregivers talk, react and interact all the time. By watching you, they are learning by example. |

Encouraging children by giving positive attention to good behaviour like when they are trying hard at a new skill can lead to positive self-esteem and confidence. |
 |
Caregivers can positively guide children by modelling patience. Stopping and pausing and patiently allowing a child to try and learn to do something themselves, guides them to be independent, patient and self-aware. |

Problem solving together helps build confidence, creativity and reduces anxiety. It helps teach children that problem solving and fixing mistakes when they arise is a natural part of learning. |
