Providing Care for Children



PROVIDING CARE FOR CHILDREN

This program is a must for viewers who are studying to become child care workers. It offers an insightful and practical introduction to caring for children in both day care and kindergarten settings. We meet Pedagogy Leader Catherine Lees and Teacher Lin Xue at a typical day care centre. We observe them at work and discuss important issues such as physical care, helping children understand their own physical needs, encouraging responsibility, and responding to emotional needs. We also learn how to assist children with hygiene, safety and exercise, and how to create a stable environment, foster independence and show empathy to children.

WORKING SAFELY WITH CHILDREN

Childcare workers are asked to commit themselves physically, emotionally and psychologically to their work. It's a position of great responsibility - but when done well, it is a genuinely rewarding career. Achieving well in this area however demands a detailed knowledge of how to work safely with children. In this program we examine health and hygiene, safe supervision, safe travel, and health and first aid. Filmed in the workplace, and filled with practical information providing real-world perspectives and examples, this is an engaging look at some of the key skills required in the childcare industry today.

    DIET AND DISEASE IN MODERN SOCIETY

    While people in some countries struggle to reach minimal levels of nutrition, one of the biggest health problems in countries like Australia is that of over-consumption.

    We consume too much energy as fat, alcohol and sugar and too much salt, yet even as we consume beyond our needs we're not eating enough complex carbohydrates and fibre.

    It is these trends which are causing burgeoning rates of cardiovascular diseases and cancers.

    In this program we look at the relationship between diet and disease, examining in detail the way foods both protect against and contribute to the most significant diseases of our age, the interaction with other health influences and the recent SIGNAL government health initiative that will shape our health for decades to come.

    DECISIONS, DECISIONS: FAMILY FOOD CHOICES

    While there are many influences on our food decisions, the family is probably the most important. In this program, we spend time with a not atypical family: a husband and wife and their teenage and pre-teenage children.

    We see who makes the decisions, why and with what effect, and we see how the family's thinking about nutrition is fairly deeply ingrained, sometimes for the worst, sometimes for the better.
