While there are many steps and tasks involved with starting an early childhood education business, some of the most important aspects have to do with hiring and training the best
possible employees that you can find. After all, these are the individuals who will be responsible not only for teaching and caring for the children who attend your facility but also for
keeping them safe.
And while hiring highly trained and properly educated caregivers is essential, it is also important to provide additional training specific to your establishment for your new employees. So,
for this lab, you will imagine that you have spent the past year working hard to get your early childhood education facility open. You just hired five new full-time employees who will be
visiting the facility later this week for their first afternoon of training.
You have decided to create a video explaining and discussing a pre-made slideshow presentation that offers a basic overview of some of your most important procedures and policies.
You tend to get nervous speaking in front of people and feel that a video of you explaining the slideshow will ensure that you do not miss anything important that you want to impart.
You want to give these employees an introduction to the vision that you have for your facility and provide some relevant information but also want to avoid getting too much into the
nitty-gritty details just yet—this will come on Day 2 of training.
For this Day 1 training video, you have come up with the following list of topics/items that you want to include in your slideshow and video:
● What do you hope to provide children with? Creativity? Social skills? Nature appreciation?
An overview of how a day in the life of their role as caregiver will look
● Greeting students, snack time, nap time, outdoor play, educational activities, etc.

For this Day 1 training video, you have come up with the following list of topics/items that you want to include in your slideshow and video:
● What do you hope to provide children with? Creativity? Social skills? Nature appreciation?
An overview of how a day in the life of their role as caregiver will look
● Greeting students, snack time, nap time, outdoor play, educational activities, etc.
● Visit the American Red Cross website to research some basic first aid procedures and include videos of yourself demonstrating these skills properly
CPR
● Visit the American Red Cross website to locate CPR/first aid/AED trainings near you and include this information in your presentation so that your employees are aware of where they need to go to get
certified
● Include a clear list of the steps your employees need to take to get certified
● Include a detailed list of the basic steps involved with performing CPR properly based on your research
● Include at least one video of a certified CPR person demonstrating CPR (if you are personally CPR certified, you may perform the demonstration video)
Any other general items or information that you would want to express to your employees on their first day at your facility
In order to properly address these items, you will need to do some online research. This will include specific research on CPR and first aid as well as exploring what kind of information other childcare facilities might include
on these topics.
Start by gathering your research, then compile this into a slideshow presentation. Next, decide how you will structure your video, get out your recording device, and start recording! Your slideshow presentation should be
included in your video, either projected onto the wall or perhaps focused on the slideshow presentation with your voice in the background. Get creative!
Please make sure that your video does not exceed 15 minutes. Submit a list of websites and resources that you used in your research along with your video.
Please refer to the rubric below for more information on how you will be graded.
Your mission statement or the overall vision for your facility
● What do you hope to provide children with? Creativity? Social skills? Nature appreciation?
- Welcome to Childcare; the raising children daycare center. We are happy to have you here
and join the team. Here we focus on elevating kids like our own. We are including many
creative activities for children's growth, such as Outdoor Experiences, Cognitive
Development, Nurturing Environment. These activities include craft ideas, games, and
teamwork projects. By doing teamwork activities will allow the kids to increase their social
skills. The children will get to know and play with other children as well. However, there will
be no types of bullying allowed and if we witness youngsters bullying every other,we will
take care of the state of affairs properly. In our daycare centre the children are allowed to go
outside and learn how to protect the environment around them.
An overview of how a day in the life of their role as caregiver will look
● Greeting students, snack time, nap time, outdoor play, educational activities, etc.
- To greet students, always show a positive attitude and make them excited to learn. For snack time,
have the kids sit at the desk and have them bring their own snacks. However, if you want to give the
children treats, make sure that no one is allergic and contact the parents to make sure that it’s okay.
The break should last about 30 minutes. Make sure that the kids clean up their messes as well for
them to learn responsibility. During nap time, have them lay down on the building cots, have the
parents bring a pillow and blanket and have a nap for 45 minutes. For educational activities, you
should focus on one thing at a time, such as one day focusing on ABC and another on animals. By
including activities for each topic.
Basic safety procedures
● Visit the American Red Cross website to research some basic first aid procedures and include videos of
yourself demonstrating these skills properly
- If the child gets sick, look at the medical records to see if they can have any medication. However, if it gets worse, then send them to the
nurse and contact the parents. Although, if they scrape their knee, fill out an accident form and contact the parents immediately.
- Make sure that the scene is safe, then tap the child on the shoulder and shout “Are you OK?” to ensure that he or she needs help.
- Open the airway. With the kid lying on his or her back, tilt the head back barely to raise the chin.
