| Abstract | Caregiver-infant interactions in the first years of a child's life provide models and shape patterns of responding that can have consequences throughout the life-span. Research and practice have produced knowledge about the sensitivity of outcomes to characteristics of the infant nurturing situation. Infant caregivers should accept babies' need for sensuous stimulation and intimate relationships. The curriculum for infant caregiving should be embedded in the innumerable daily acts of caring that allow infants' bodies to settle into easy rhythms. Sensorimotor skill building, and, later, preoperational skill building should be done in a sensitive manner so that infants and toddlers are lured, not pushed, into learnings. Language richness should permeate a baby's day. The infant or toddler's environment must provide safe places for the infants to run, crawl, and gallop about. Discipline in infant caregiving requires that conditions be arranged so that babies are kept as comfortable as possible. Discipline for toddlers may involve arranging the environment so that no-nos are infrequent. To provide an optimal developmental situation for each child, caregivers should hone their "noticing skills" to detect the ways in which each early learner markedly differs from others. (RH) |
