I have 3 great expectations in my classroom 1. Be Safe A. Keep our hands and feet to ourselves B. Keep our feet on the floor 2. Be Responsible A. Clean up when we are told to B. Take care of our belongings 3. Be A Friend A. Help our friends up if they fall or get hurt B. Give hugs when a friend needs it

1. Set boundaries/expectations 2. Repeat 3. Model 4. Managing conflict 5. Communication 6.Routine 7. Problem solving

I'm in the process of opening a daycare and this video was extremely helpful. My favorite rule you demonstrated was "no, but..." toddlers have a hard time understanding why they can't do something.

I'm a toddler lead teacher. We don't use the word whinning as its hurtful to children. We say no yelling and have a calm down area for them to use for any type of emotion. We encourage their use of their emotionas and focus on labeling the emotions and modeling aprioriate behaviors for those emotions as well as labeling other teachers and friends. Whinning is okay because it comes with being tired or angry and sad and we need to know which one is the source of the "whinning" to better help each child. I want emphasis whinning is an okay word. We just sont use words like that at our center. We also dont use the word "No". We give the reason not the statement. My We also don't make them hold our hands outside as children learn best exploring nature and the world around them and we buggy them if we're traveling distance. We never walk -2 by hand near road ways. They buggy up or are on a schoo bus. I work at a center not in home. We're modeling behaviors and how to be appropriate during play as well as focusing on social emotional development at that's 0-5s primary focus. We use the creative curriculum. I agree with some of these and support them as I've worked in all ages of early learning. I work at a 5 star facility through quality stars and OCFS regulated. A lot of our rules and standards are the same. An I agree with most of the rules here butthe rest is based on training and education.

thank you for this video! i'm new to childcare at a preschool with very high expectations from the teachers, and i feel so behind on how to get these toddlers to listen and get along with each other better. it's a lot! i've been told a lot of different things by my coworkers, and this approach fits my personality best. i'll test this out!

I love the stepping back tip. It's good to let kids try to resolve their problems first then ask an adult for help. Great video!

Your tutorial is so helpful, it is always great to set those points when dealing with the little ones! Thank you so much! Loved it!

Seems like such great tips to raise up sweet sweet kind children!

I just come across this and for sure it's very helpful..I love it thanks for the insight.

Wow, Krista (I hope I spelled that right) this video was amazing. These are great universal tips to use for any situation involving youngsters. I will be babysitting a little angel (outside of my family) for the first time and I needed some tips on how to do it with excellency, so this really helped. Thank you so much.

I really appreciate this not only did this help with my 2 year old but I start teaching prek tomorrow this is exciting!!

Wow so many good tips ty so much u must be a great teacher for ur kids

Love love love your advice! As a teacher I used a lot of these myself, I have a harder time defining expectations for my own kids. There are so many scenarios I haven’t pre-planned an expectation, or I waiver on my expectations as I consider pros and cons of each. Like letting toddlers ride in the basket, or run ahead, or eat at their kid table instead of the counter… yadda yadda. I haven’t defined some boundaries so I get frustrated… this was a good reminder

Hi, this is Diane from Diane’s Daycare!!! I closed during Covid to care for a family member. I am going reopen my daycare this year2023! Thank you for this video!! Love your channel and IG too!

Thanks very helpful

I love using timers in my classroom for sharing toys.

I love watching your videos - thank you for the time, effort, and planning you put into them. 💕

Thank you for these tips it will help me in my before and after school program.

I’ve been put in the 1s room and I’m struggling with getting them to not fight or cry. One major thing is them climbing on tables and shelves! Please help me with understanding ones!!

Very useful

Hey!! Just found your video! My name is Krista too! I’m just starting a daycare job and nervous about it! Thanks for the tips!!!!

Im going to start working with preschool aged kids this summer as a counselor. This video was very helpful!

Thank you so much these tips are so helpful

This was really helpful. This week, I got the chance to volunteer at a daycare I will be working at this summer and just based on some situations that occurred (mainly due to some children not listening), I need all the tips I can get :)

Thanks for the tips,very helpful :)

Excelent vídeo

Here’s where I struggle with the physical alterations. I redirect the kids about why they shouldn’t throw blocks or hit friends and no matter how many times I tell them. They still do it. Is there another way because I don’t think that one is helpful for me. 🥺

Think you I just started working at a daycare and it’s hard

thankyouu kristaaa😭😭😭 thankyou for all the advice!😭 its really overwhelming when kids in class start to hitting their friends😭😭 your advice really helpful! will definitely try these on mondayy!❤️ thankyouuu!❤️ pls keep making videossa

I tried this and the kids just do not listen no matter how calmly i speak and express to them them the “why” it’s like some have a kind of their own and just won’t even listen… I’ve been told “no” I’ve been told “I’m not doing that” and also I’ve been told “shut up” when talking to them calmly. So my next question will be, how do you deal with disrespectful children?

This is so helpful. Sometimes we use avoidance to keep problems from happening but the problems are learning opportunities. How will they learn if we don’t give them a chance?

I like the idea of: "Eeny Meeny, Miny, Moe Catch the tiger by the toe if he hollers let him go" I am goint to impliment this startegy in the kindergarten. Please, can you write down the title of the books that you mentioned in the video???Thanks.

I teach 2’s and 3’s, there’s been quite a few teachers in this class before me. One of which walked out. I need to know how to be authoritative. These kids walk all over me and laugh in my face when I tell them to stop doing something. I don’t like being the mean teacher, but time outs just aren’t working anymore. It’s gotten to the point where they like being disciplined. What do I do in this situation

I have two fosters in my class. They misbehave, throw stuff, hit me and other kids, scream, cry and spit. I don’t know how to stop this behave and manage it. I also don’t know how to get them to have a good day without acting out and having their guardian pick them up.

Thanks for the video! How would you respond to a child that takes things they should be in a non threatening way?

Hay quá

How do you deal with 9mo-18mo biting, biting, pushing, etc their fellow classmates?? It’s so difficult sometimes

Hye, it's a great video by the way🤭 May i ask you a tips for this kind of situation? When these 4 years old 2 kids are fighting over a toy and one of them start crying, what should i do?😭

what would you do with a school age child that is very disrespectful, uses inappropriate language, doesn’t listen, and is hyperactive?

Hi! Any chance you can fix the settings on this video so that the Closed Captions in auto-translate are working? The CC in vietnamese is making it not work appropriately. Thank you!

can i ask, do you have any advice for a new daycare worker tasked to keep a child away from their blanket ? (except for nap time) she screams and cries all day. i’m talking 8-5pm. she’s starts crying hard when you look at her and has physical fits when you tell her no or try to change her. she can’t engage in any activities or learning.

I am in the toddlers and how do you help them understand that pushing is not nice and to be nice to their friends

I’m in a twos room and I’m feeling very frustrated

Pls show something that u use recycling material and you make your theme.

what are the name of the books you mentioned ? Thanks

How to set expectations if the teacher doesn't speak native language of the students? Should I ask others to translate?
