A new family tour is often the first opportunity a program has to explain the elements of responsive caregiving and how it is used in planning for the individual needs of children birth to age three. You will be developing a script for a new family tour that includes your dialogue as well as questions you would ask the family.
Step One- Select an age group for the tour (from below):
Young infants (non-mobile)
Older infants (mobile)
Young toddlers (1-2 years old)
Older toddlers (2-3 years old)
Step Two - Write your tour script
Write a script to introduce your selected age group/program, addressing the questions below. Your script is your own dialogue, what you will say word for word. You may want to include additional information to cover the other key aspects for new parents as well.
How is the program set up to support responsive caregiving practices?
How does responsive caregiving meet individual needs to support learning?
What is your role in implementing the approach?
Explain what the age range for your tour and staff-to-child ratio?
What additional information would you share to personalize the tour?
Step Three: Questions
Write five questions to ask parents about their child during the tour to collect information on the following:
Routine
Temperament
Child Preferences
Social and emotional needs and responses
Family Expectations
Explain how you would utilize these questions during the tour to collect information from families and connect information collected to how you implement a responsive approach.
