Podcast: Inclusion Matters

Conflict can happen when adults spend time together. What are the practices that you follow to support your teaching team when issues arise? This podcast addresses ways to create space for conversation in a respectful manner that helps clear the air so the team can function properly and positively.

Families are an essential part of the child care community.  This podcast addresses the need for clear procedures for sharing information with families, for connecting with families and for creating a sense of belonging for not just the child but for the entire family in your child care setting.

During this podcast, Priscilla Weigel talks with CICC team members, Beth Menninga and Brenda Lowe about building routines of support for adults who provide care to children in child care settings. How do we plan for each day? What does a shared task schedule look like and what does it need to include?
