Book excerpt: "Only about 25 percent of the employees in child-care operations around the country have had professional training in dealing with children."--Newsweek This book is a proven, practical approach to providing that training at a minimum of expense and disruption of services. Written for trainers, it may profitably be used by any individual who wants to know more about positive methods for working with children. The information provided here has been used extensively to train child-care providers throughout Illinois. Covered in detail are discipline, professionalism, child and adult communication, child development, observation, assessment, play, nutrition, health and safety, parent involvement and education, child abuse, developmental care, and organization of the environment. Illinois Governor James Thompson, former DCFS Director Gregory Coler, and DCFS Director Gordon Johnson have all endorsed these materials by continuing to recommend them for day-care training in Illinois.
