Positive attachment

In the first few years of life, parents are the most important caregivers for a child. During this important phase, a positive bond is formed that has a decisive influence on the child's emotional, mental and physical development. If children are cared for outside the home from an early age, the quality of the time spent together with their parents is particularly important. This early bond forms the basis for children to discover the world, develop confidence in their own abilities and take on new challenges. A loving and positive relationship with caregivers influences all areas of a child's development. It has a positive effect on the child's emotional well-being and promotes their social, cognitive and language skills. It facilitates the development of social skills such as compassion, empathy and helpfulness. It also contributes to the development of cognitive skills by stimulating the child's curiosity and independent thinking. Spending time together with parents is crucial in preparing children for the demands of school. Through shared activities and conversations, parents help their children develop the necessary social, emotional and cognitive skills needed to start school.

Taking personal responsibility

The preschool years are a crucial phase in which children develop fundamental skills that prepare them for school. The role of parents in this phase of life is central because they exert a long-term influence on their child's emotional, social and cognitive development through their active involvement and support. By taking responsibility themselves and providing valuable learning experiences, parents play a key role in shaping their child's development. Encourage your child to discover everyday life around them with joy and to learn new things.

Supporting child development

Childhood is an important phase and lays the foundation for a child's entire development. During this formative time, parents play a key role by providing guidance and support, recognizing and encouraging your child's individual talents and supporting their continuous development. A loving and supportive upbringing that encourages the child's language, motor, social and mathematical skills as well as individual interests forms the basis for a positive start to school and the life beyond.

The importance of early support

Parents are their child's first learning companions and have the greatest influence on their child's development and education. Children go through various developmental phases, each with its unique features and challenges. During these phases, children expand their social, emotional, physical, and cognitive skills. From birth, they are involved in a continuous learning process, acquiring basic skills needed for everyday life and later for school. It is crucial to encourage children as early as possible, both physically and cognitively. Joint activities help your child observe their environment, ask questions, and gain experiences. For example, when you point out the different characteristics of plants or animals while out in nature and discuss them, you foster their language development. You can improve your child's concentration and stamina by providing suitable play materials such as building blocks, puzzles, or coloring books. Activities that engage different senses enable children to understand their world in a comprehensive way. When feeding an animal, a child experiences the animal's trust, which awakens a deep sense of empathy for all living beings. A child who sings not only activates their sense of hearing but also improves their language skills and develops a sense of rhythm. Ensure developmentally appropriate encouragement by acknowledging your child's individual interests while avoiding overwhelming them.
