Enhance the observation skills of caregivers
|
Have caregivers describe precisely what they see in the video |
Could you describe in your own words what you saw in this part of the video? |
|
Favor the parents' skills to observe and understand their child's development.
|
Have caregivers describe precisely what they see about their child's actions and interaction with the environment. |
Could you describe in your own words what you saw in this part of the video? |
| What is your child doing with the toys? How is your child interacting with the environment? |
|
Improve caregivers' observation skills.
|
Have caregivers watch a video segment again and encourage them to describe it in their own words. |
We can show a part of the video again and ask them to describe it. We can guide or facilitate this description. |
|
Strengthen the therapeutic alliance with caregivers.
|
Reinforce parental skills in parents. Show moments where the adult and their skills can be validated. |
See how you are attentive to their signals. |
| How you identify that your child needs more support to understand the game is very important. |
|
Encourage validation of the child by the caregiver
|
Parents can recognize and validate the competencies of their child |
Your daughter/or (you can use their name) enjoys the game. She is very creative and has excellent ideas to play |
|
Reinforce the positive aspects of the interaction
|
Show segments where positive interactions can be visualized |
It can start with the description of the scene by the caregivers and then encourage reflection on the positive aspects of that interaction (connection, enjoyment, round-trip interactions (serve and return) |
|
Strengthen the bond
|
Show segments where the child is observed responding positively to the adult's actions |
“[child's name] feels great when you support him/her.” |
| “[name of child] looks happy when you are playing with him/her.” |
|
Recognition and sensitive response to the child's signals: reading, interpretation, and response.
|
Caregivers can identify the child's behavior cue, the adult's response, and subsequent reaction. |
Find scenes where it can be analyzed. |
| Signal of the child-sensitive response of the adult or child's response. |
| Reflect with caregivers |
|
Promote caregiver's understanding of their child's development.
|
Caregivers can interpret the child's behavior by relating them to their development. |
“At the age of…. Sometimes it is hard for him...” |
| “By the development of… we might expect that…” |
|
Promote the sensitive response of the adult.
|
Caregivers can identify the verbal and non-verbal cues of stress and discomfort in their child. |
“It seems that…. Withdraws from the game when the challenge increases.” |
| “…gets anxious when you change the game.” |
|
Promote the sensitive response of the adult
|
Caregivers can identify when a response is sensitive to the child’s needs. |
Look for parts of the video where the caregiver was able to identify, interpret, and respond appropriately to your child's signal |
|
Identify difficulties in recognizing the needs of the child
|
Caregivers can identify why it is more difficult for them to respond sensitively. |
This strategy can be used when you see a sensitive response or a positive interaction in the video. You are invited to reflect on why responding to your child's needs at this time was more complex. |
| “Why do you imagine that at this moment, it became more difficult for you to respond as you did when…” |
|
Promote reflective spaces
|
Generate questions that allow reflection on specific episodes |
“Generally, he is so motivated to play.” |
| “What we just saw usually happens at other times.” |
|
Recognize your child's interests and preferences.
|
Identify scenes where the child shows their choices of games or elements to explore. Refer to whether caregivers responded to this or changed the child's play. Emphasize the relevance of following the child's game, incorporating elements that give it variety or that increase the complexity a little |
“From what you have seen of the video, what things does your child like to play.” |
| “What preferences did he show you... what did you do when he showed you what he liked” |
|
Identify how you could support your child's development through play or interaction.
|
Identify scenes where the parent is seen to be scaffolding or promoting development. Or scenes where opportunities for this to happen appear, and you can reflect on how you could use those moments to enhance your child's learning |
Identify when your child is showing difficulties in carrying out an activity and see how you can make it easier for him or her to do it (do not give the answer or do it for him or her). |
| Reflect on how through play, we can promote development |
|
Recognize which experiences favor the dysregulation of the child
|
Caregivers can identify which stimuli or experiences tend to dysregulate their child. |
Look for scenes where the child becomes deregulated and reflect on what may have caused that dysregulation. |
| Identify mild signs of stress or discomfort. |
|
Recognize which experiences favor the regulation of the child
|
Caregivers can identify which stimuli or experiences tend to regulate their child. |
Look for scenes where the child has become dysregulated and then has begun to return to calm. Reflect on what may have caused this reaction. |
| Identify behavioral signs that are related to the regulation of the child (behaviors that show that he is returning to calm) |
