2.3 Explain how theories of development and frameworks to support development influence current practice. Theories of development and frameworks to support development are incredibly important to us when working with children. They help us to understand children, how they react to things, situations, their behaviour and the way they learn. Different theories and ways of working with children have come together to provide frameworks for children’s care, such as Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) which is used within all child care settings. This encourages us to work together, help and check the development of babies, children and young people, to keep them healthy and safe.

Play also enables children to sort through conflicts and deal with anxieties, fears, and disturbing feelings in an active, powerful way. Adults contribute to the development of children’s sense of initiative in several ways.

NAEYC Codes of Ethics Core Values *Appreciate childhood as a unique and valuable stage of the human life.

The NQF and NQS have been introduced by the Australian governments to provide better educational outcomes for children using educational and care services such as day care, family day care and preschool/kindergarten. It shapes the future of children as the early years are the years of establishing self-esteem, resilience, healthy growth and capacity to learn. Children need the attention required to meet their individual needs. The two main influences on child care are caregiver qualifications, and lower staff to child ratios which particularly help young children and those from disadvantaged backgrounds. The improvement of educator to child ratio allows staff to give more individual care to children and to build stronger relationships with children.
