Hi,
I’ve just found a very informative webpage about children’s mental health which is useful for anyone running a home daycare.
Here’s an excerpt:
“The Caring for Every Child’s Mental Health communications campaign is a national public information and education campaign to:
Increase public awareness about the importance of protecting and nurturing the mental health of young people.
Foster recognition that many children have mental health problems that are real, painful, and sometimes severe.
Encourage caregivers to seek early, appropriate treatment and services.
The campaign helps families, educators, health care providers, and young people recognize mental health problems and to seek or recommend appropriate services. It also strives to reduce the stigma associated with mental health problems.”
You can read the whole thing here: Caring for Every Child’s Mental Health Campaign
Talk soon,
