MY OBSERVATIONS
Baby and Adult Caregiver
 Baby attachment is the deep emotional connection that a baby forms with his or
her primary caregiver, often the mother. It is a tie that binds them together, endures
over time, and leads the infant to experience pleasure, joy, safety, and comfort in the
caregiver's company.
Toddler and Adult Caregiver
 Times for eating and sleeping should be flexible: feed infants on demand and put
them down to sleep when they need it; have snacks on hand for toddlers and suggest
rest if they are tired. As much as possible, allow them to play alone or interact with
caregivers and other children when they choose.
My interpretation in the context of Erikson’s Theory
 This theory focus on the importance of early experiences. This allows us to
emphasize the social nature of human beings and the important influence that social
relationships have on development. Erikson was more concerned with how
responsive caretakers are to a child's needs
