Pre-School Information for Parents

In the care of children may engage many people: family members (such as grandparents), the nurse, nurses, occasional babysitter, and so on. Ideally, we could take care of ourselves, our children all the time, to be aware of them, but the reality is not so and we often have to let other people help us, it is difficult to choose someone suitable to undertake this work as important.

In Parentheses we tell you how you can do to choose the right person to care for your children .
Choice Nanny

Many people hire a nanny , either because they prefer the comfort and individual attention that a nanny can provide, or because, with several children, may end up being cheaper than childcare. The key point to remember is that the relationship with the nanny will be very personal, and he will share with your family, your house and most of the day, but it must also be a professional relationship.

The most important criterion for hiring a nanny is that she shares your ideas and values ​​about child rearing. This can be observed not only in a personal interview, but rather, in the interaction with your child. It is best to test one day before sealing the deal.

You should also check references and talk some issues, like what do you think of discipline?, What food?, What television?, ¿Sleep and play?, Did you ride your child, etc.? . Depends on what you’re looking at the person who will accompany your child, but openly discuss various topics will help you choose better.

We also need to know basic first aid maneuvers and talk clearly what tasks will it. At this point it is important that the nurse can devote most of the time to care and be aware of your child, because if you have to do many household chores may not be aware of anything that might happen.

If you want to put cameras to see how the nanny is your son, it is best to talk the situation beforehand, and that confidence can be seen damaged if she discovers that she is being filmed.
Choosing a day care center

Another alternative is to take your child to a day care center, which can be cheaper than a nanny can be more reliable, have no problem if the nanny gets sick or goes on vacation, but not as individualized care, because they have other children by the caregivers. The childcare you choose should be teaching values ​​that match what you think and you know their policies on nutrition, sleep, discipline and television. You should check that the nursery is established by law and that people who work are qualified.

Family care of your child

Some people prefer family care of children, leaving them with grandparents or other relatives, allowing them a family environment at low cost. Recommended in these cases is to ensure that the environment is right to give our children, and relatives will not be neglected, avoiding accidents, since they may be doing the work from home and can not see what makes the children.

Whatever your choice, who cares for your child is doing very important work, which you should be thankful, but remember that whoever has the duty to educate your children you are and you should not blame the the other bad behaviors that do not have the authority to have you as a parent.

Of course any mother argue with the fact that cesarean section is equal to a natural birth does not make sense.

The connection can be achieved between a mother and a child through natural childbirth (painful or not) is incomparable. Caesarean section is an unnatural mechanism (but fortunately exists) gives an alternative way out of the baby if he fails to pass through the birth canal of the mother.

On a psychological level, therefore there is no doubt of the importance of the natural mechanism of delivery versus cesarean section. And as for the strictly medical grounds, it seems that either, as a recent study conducted in Argentina showed that cesarean section carries a much larger number of disadvantages in relation to postpartum vaginal delivery.

According to the scientists who were conducting the study, more than half of the disturbances occurred in babies born by caesarean section, which necessitated that infants were hospitalized in intensive care with oxygen.

To register this number of postpartum disorders was necessary to observe some 2,200 birth and postpartum complication rates were recorded in them.

Sure that the data provided by medicine they rely more on natural childbirth in a C-section, not to mention the psychological aspect of giving birth to a baby. The medicine always helps, and is a blessing that it exists, but it is indisputable that the natural mechanisms mean much more than her, especially in cases as significant as it is intensely childbirth.

The importance of adequate separation (cribs, nurseries, nannies, etc.).
The psychoanalyst Francoise Dolto argues that there are facts, such as some separations of babies if not handled properly, that could be classified as violent in relation to the child, even if not physically assaulted.

Dolto defines violence as: “It’s when and not said or not said.” Thus always to be accounted for separations, even when you think that babies do not understand what they are told. A child violence could occur at birth when the child is separated from the mother took him to the nursery. Similarly, when arriving at his house was located in another room immediately, because what the child likes is to feel the presence of loved ones and protectors. This is seen clearly by observing the way as placid as a baby sleeps in the room of parents in the first months of life, unlike the concern with lying in his.

Another fact that can be considered violent to the child’s placement in a nursery. Fortunately in our country’s inclusion in many nurseries is done gradually, so the mother goes with an entire first day and the hours dwindle until the child feels secure that her parents will not forget and come back for him. So, by leaving the baby in the nursery, it should say “come back for you later, going to stay in the nursery so many hours with John Doe. Think of you. ”

Also for the child can be a violent act changing the call nana. Sometimes moms are concerned that the baby will become very attached to it, but if the nanny is good, children love him more for his mother. The child is not confused, but mom tells someone else, knows who his mother. Also in these changes should explain the reasons.

Parents should always talk to the baby because the word is, even when that made no longer present. So the children who have not spoken to any separation panic. In talking with the baby in all situations, we will be remembering that the child is not a nice little thing, but a person.

Bathroom.
At this age, children are very fond of bathing with foam. However, because their ingredients can cause xeroderma (a condition in which skin and tissue covering the eye is extremely sensitive to the ultraviolet part of sunlight), experts advise not to use a continuous and much less in people with atopic history. The water temperature should not exceed 37 º C and bathrooms should not last more than 15 minutes. It is recommended that antibacterial soaps do not contain. The shampoo is most recommended for daily use, as most children are very active and sweat a lot.

Nails.
They should stay short and clean to prevent secondary infections in the skin.

Teeth.
We must stress the routine of brushing teeth. The best example is the routine of parents and siblings. At first be taught in a playful way to encourage them and then insist that they should continue doing so in their schedules set.
