Children can be aggressive sometimes. It is a normal part of behavioural and emotional development, especially between the ages of 3 and 6. Every child develops the instinct to bite, hit, kick, and yell when they feel overwhelmed by their emotions. Just because it is a developmental milestone for children does not mean they cannot be taught to control their actions. Learning emotional regulation is an important part of teaching children how to conduct themselves appropriately.It can be difficult to hear your child report they are being hit by another child whilst at daycare. Whether it is just one child acting aggressively toward yours or there are several engaging in the practice, there are steps you can take to address the matter. Here are five things you and your child can do to correct the situation.

The first thing parents must do is alert the day care centre about the behaviour. Creative Childcare takes all complaints about aggression toward children in our care seriously. Although aggression is developmentally appropriate, we work with the child or children who are engaging in the practice to help them understand their feelings and find more appropriate ways to express them. Our staff also will address the issue with the child’s parents or guardians and provide them with strategies they can reinforce at home to help teach that hitting others is inappropriate.

Does your child have difficulty sharing, and is taking toys or other desired items from other children without asking or waiting their turn? Making sure your child is not playing a role in aggression is an important step in addressing it. If your child is contributing, we can provide parents with teaching moments to help their child control their part in the negative interaction.Patience is a must when dealing with a child-hitting situation at daycare. Creative Childcare is here for parents and guardians and will address these concerns immediately. Reach out to us today to learn more about how we can help.

When to place your little one in childcare is one of the most important choices you will make as a parent.Since Australia offers paid parental leave for up to 4.5 months, many mums and dads are not in a hurry to return to work. Some wait until six months before parting with their babes to head back to the workforce whilst others may go even longer. The best age to start childcare is a very personal decision. Some parents may need to place their child into care due to financial or work commitments. Others may choose to wait until their child is of preschool age before starting. There is no right or wrong time to start childcare. Here are some considerations to help you decide.

Starting childcare early The benefits of attending childcare at any age are well-documented. The Australian Institute of Family estimates that 35 per cent of children aged up to 1 year were cared for in a formal early childhood education centre. Babies require sensory stimulation to develop physically and emotionally. Our music, art, and physical movement activities help babies learn and grow. Another consideration for starting early is the benefit to your child’s immune system. Research supports the notion that children who attend childcare early in life are less likely to become sick during their later school years. Babies require a lot of one-on-one time. If you choose to start childcare between birth and through age 1, choose a centre like ours with a low child-to-carer ratio to ensure your child receives individualised attention. Our infant childcare room stresses routine for meals, nap time, and play, helping your child to grow and learn.
