**Ask me about Funded hours
I give all children in my care the opportunity to reach their full potential. Sometimes this means adapting an activity to the child’s ability and stage of development, providing additional resources, or giving one child more attention and support than others during a particular activity or routine.
All children in my care are given the opportunity to play with all the toys (subject to health and safety with children under 3 years of age). No toys are just for girls or just for boys. I try to ensure my toys reflect positive images of children and people from different cultures and with different abilities. I have toys and resources that challenge stereotypical ideas about what careers are open to men and women.
No child in my care will be discriminated against in any way, whether for their skin colour, culture, gender, ability, or religion. I will challenge any remarks that I feel are inappropriate.
I encourage the children in my care to learn more about their own culture and to find out about the culture and religions of other children. We do this in a fun way through sharing books, colouring sheets, cooking, and celebrating special festivals. I provide resources such as dressing up clothes and multicultural skin tone crayons and pencils.
I encourage the children to develop a healthy respect for each other’s differences and to value everyone as an individual.
If you have any concerns regarding this policy please discuss them with me.
