The center policy is in place for supplied meals and food, which are nutritious and
healthy meals, snacks which are developed as per child healthcare and specific nutrition
needs. The centre policy is in place for supplied meals and food bought from home,
where this has been also found as major aspect, where fruits, seafood and lean meals
are some nutritious meals which are given. Also, policy of centre is associated to supply
meals with high calcium rich meals and snacks such as fruits, nuts and diary products. It
will be based on making children latherer one of the most essential priority and develop

nutritious meals and snacks where grains will be also used. Also the centre policy aims
to encourage children for bringing healthy nutritious food from home and to develop

provide children heathy food practices, and develop self eating habits at school which

What Hygiene practices are in place at my centre?
For children’s well-being, we have centre policies and procedures that every staff
members and children follow which enables toddlers to be comfortable at school while
they attend daily school. The hygiene practices essentially enables child to be safe at
centre, where there are practices and procedures specifically taken up for improvised
working and also taking up specific hygiene standards followed. The hygiene well-being
centre policies and procedures, are specifically focusing on maintaining school bags
properly and carries packed lunch along. It makes sure that children wear proper washed
clothes, keep hand sanitized and also develop healthy eating while they sit for lunch. It
has been also found that hygiene practices at centre, are evolved to be also developing
towards keeping staff members safety and to further also improvise safety standards.
The centre hygiene practices, also further has ben been taking initiatives to keep clean
premises and also develop proper informative strategies. Health and social care hygiene
practices, further develop proper response to children specific requirements which will
enhance their response towards productive learning habits (Le and et.al, 2021).
What safety procedures are in place at your centre?
We strictly follow National Quality Standards for children’s safety, where aim of quality
area 2 under national quality standard is to safeguard and promote children health and
safety for minimized risks and protect children from harm. The child protection
( International measures) Act 2003 is another safety procedure at centre, another is
Name Date Page 8

children, young persons and families amendment act 2009 which also enables to keep
safety procedures intact at centre. The safety procedures in place at centre are also
competently formed, for keeping children safe and develop larger working rise. Safety
procedures are intact in place at centre, which will keep child safe and also respond to
immediate needs relating with care for enhancing vital nurtured care at centre. It is also
essentially crucial to develop proper respondance for all emergencies, whee safety
procedures are intact maintained for toddlers. By keeping specific focus on safety
procedures in place at centre, centre initiatives will be aligned with long term objectives
for functional optimum vision regarding childcare (Hadley And et.al, 2021).
How do you respond to upset children?
Sometimes children have trouble emotionally, especially, on their first day in the centre
where teachers specifically take care to make them feel comfortable within school. The
children when upset, are attended by teachers who make sure that they are given
proper hygienic condition and also given healthy sacks. It has been also found that
children when upset, they should be given proper care and taken up in group plays for
further developing comfortable environment at school. If the child is facing issues and is
not able to adopt towards new practices, their parents are called for meeting teachers
ideally which makes school authorities aware of all requirements among children.
Responding to children when they are upset, further makes them develop confident to
attend daily living practices and also attain responding to varied immediate situations
specifically. Teachers should also essentially take initiatives, to further respond to
immediate responses for children and take up responses from children parents regarding
their aptitude which will develop proper responses significantly. There is also further
pace towards strengthening upset children attitude and make them cheerfully active to
be confident within plays and activities at school (Farha Farahat and El-Esrigy, 2020).

How do you support children with toilet training ?
The centre has toilet training routine in the toddler room, where specific foucs is given
on toilet training for children when they start adapting to new practices. They are given
training for understanding, and using words such as usage of potty and make connection
between urge to pee or poop and using the potty. They are encouraged to keep diaper
dry for 2 hours or more, and get it to potty, sit on it enough time and then get off the
potty which are found to be highly essential to train children. It is essential to train
children in toilet training, as they should be further involved independently in learning
new practices. Supporting children with toilet training, will make them confident to
further attend their daily requirements, and also further be competent to further evolve
on toilet practices at centre. Teachers should also politely toilet train children by telling
them about wash room habits, and keeping hygienic standards checked for safety
practices. There should be also specific focus evolved on toilet training for all children, as
it enables them to learn new practices for attending specific needs on their own. This will
also enable them to respond early for toilet needs, and also make them active towards
immediate responding attitude.

The centre has indoor and outdoor area for small children to learn new habits and
practices at centre, where they are encouraged to be happy and safely adapt to new
place. Centre physical activities and facilities are sand play, water play and drawing,
painting activities where toddlers are encouraged to learn new practices. Children are

evolve on new eating practices. Centre also has facilities for proper toilets for all
children, play sections and small books section where play activities can be enjoyed by
toddlers at school (Dennis and Ball, 2021).
How do you monitor children’s clothing and temperature controls?
Cairns has tropical warm weather conditions and children are observed for appropriate
clothing , as it is essential to monitor children clothing and temperature controls at
centre. The children clothing and textile is made of regular polymer fibres whcih are
coated with carbon nanotubes, making them responsive to change in body heat. In warm
and humid conditions, children clothing and temperature controls are further evolved as
their temperature should be monitored regularly (Bohanna and et.al, 2021). Children
susceptibility to high temperature varies, where kids with specific disease are
susceptible to high temperatures and it is role of school nurse, community centre
practitioner at centre to further take up practices for temperature controls. Support staff
should be further aware of risks, and strategies to further make them precisely known of
information to support children with medical conditions. Symptoms such as heat

exhaustion, tiredness and dizziness, headache and skin reactions further enable to keep
check on child clothing, temperature practices.
How do you ensure children and parents are made comfortable at your

The centre ensures children and parents are made comfortable at centre, by further
making them comfortable and also addressing to developed understadning at centre. It
is also highly essential to further keep check at activities in whcih children are taking
