Attending a Speech and Language Conference today with fellow childminders. Can't complain about the setting! Great resources and inspiring key speakers

Ever wondered why your childminder prefers tab nappies?
This is why.
On our trip to the woods I needed to change one of the Hedgehogs.
They were covered in mud and really didn’t want to stop to have their nappy changed.
It was a bit chilly and a bit damp as well!

Thankfully this child had tab nappies on.
This meant I didn’t have to fully undress them, they stayed dry and mostly warm too.

We were sorted in half the time it takes to fully undress for pull ups!

Which meant that this hedgehog was back off playing in the woods in no time!

I love this picture because there is so much more going on than a passer by might think. Childminders often get criticised for just sitting back and not getting involved in children's play but there is a reason for this type of approach. Here I have 3 boys developing bonds with each other, planning on what they are going to do next, working out how to get on and off the equipment, sharing and taking turns, communicating with each other, learning about kindness and having so much fun. I like to sit back and observe and of course answer questions and join in if invited. A child led approach has so much to offer in the development of the children.
