special skills, talents, and abilities should a good childcare provider have?

Answer 1

I was a child care provider for social service Dept. A child care provider should have cpr , first aide, and child care trainning. They should be open minded to cultural diversity, not all families are the same, example some eat at the table others don't. Some use time out others might redirect. A provider should be able to communicate with the parents and set out guidelines that make everyone happy. Children learn through play so be creative, play games, make it learning games let the child/children use their imagination. Go through your home and look for potential dangers then ask provider what they would do in a situation that might result from that danger. These are your children, it's never enough to protect them or to see them grow in every way. If you are the provider make sure you have all the trainning you can get, it's a great career with great benefits, just look at the smile on the face of the next child you care for!

1. Patience
2. Caring
3. Fun- there's no shame in childcare you have to dance, sing play and be silly in front of staff, children and parents.
4. Loving
5. Fair- no favorites
I worked in childcare for the last 6 years, it is very poorly paid in Australia you defiantly don't do it for the money.
There is alot of paper work and crappy jobs(nappies and worse) to do it is not just looking after kids unfortunately.
