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.
