    Yes ~ every provider heading into a relationship with clients should have very CLEAR policies on how things like this are handled within the home childcare centre .... we are not a 'large group centre' that has access to multiple staff to supervise multiple rooms and children in various stages of sleep needs ~ everyone RESTS so that the children needing nap are in an environment that supports their need to nap ~ if a child in a restful state falls ASLEEP it is because they NEED the sleep!

    Issues at bedtime at HOME are rarely about being 'tired' they are about the normal stage of 'sleep resistance' where a child has realized that time passes while they sleep and they are 'missing out' on things being done while they sleep so they STALL going to sleep in an effort not to miss things ... removing the 'nap' is not the solution dealing with the stalling behaviors and the expectations that they go to bed and sleep is the answer!
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."
