SayPro Importance of consistency in care
Consistent, dependable relationships are the foundation of children’s secure attachment to adults in their family. Stable and predictable relationships are just as essential to children in child care settings. Changing child care providers and environments too often is disruptive for a child. Children should be in the same child care setting with the same adult caregivers for as long as possible in order to build the sense of security and trust that leads to secure attachment. Children in child care need familiar routines to encourage learning and provide a sense of control.Consistency, when predictable and stable is really what’s meant, helps children feel secure. If it’s hugs and smiles one day but anger and impatience the next, love feels unstable. If today it’s okay to turn on the TV but, with no other changes, tomorrow it’s not okay, life feels unpredictable.Usually, though, when it’s said that children need consistency, another reason gets lumped in there. It’s to make children more convenient for parents. It’s inconvenient for parents when children question rules that are arbitrary. They can’t have gum at the checkout counter? But Daddy lets them. But that kid got some. But the store puts it there to sell. But that one time it was okay. If a parent is consistent, the kids learn it’s pointless to ask even if it doesn’t make sense to them.Children need consistency for the same reason adults do: for stability and understanding how to navigate the world.
