Starting in daycare is always a big change for a family and with it comes a wide range of feelings. Parents may be concerned about the practices associated with starting daycare, the child’s adaptation to a playgroup, or the re-adjustment of daily routines associated with starting in care. When starting it is important to discuss your own wishes and ideas regarding this with the early childhood educators. Open cooperation between the family and early childhood educators therefore plays an important role right from the start. In our operations, we pay special attention to grouping and getting to know each other. In principle, we always fill the groups of children at the beginning of the season, but it is also possible for a new child to join the group mid-season from time to time. A new family is always contacted from the daycare before the season starts and a start-up discussion is arranged with the family. We recommend a soft start, depending on the wishes of the family and the age level of the child. At the beginning of the care period, each family agrees more precisely on the framework of the daycare practice. It is especially important to us that every parent can leave a child at the daycare with confidence, knowing that the child will be helped, supported, encouraged and comforted in all situations, even when saddened .
