This enables the child to form an attachment with the main carer and the more positive this attachment is, the more confident the child will become. As children grow and develop in a secure environment, they develop the key skills needed to form good friendships and relationships. If a child has formed a secure attachment in the early stages, then when it comes time to separate from their carer during the pre-school years, they will find it easier to manage as they already have a secure foundation and know they can rely on their carer to return. This makes the transition into pre-school stress free for the child. There are different stages of attachment.

Each child contains a gift vital to the well-being of the surrounding world. The number of gifts I saw in only the 181 girls I counseled was an immense one: leadership, compassion, organization, artistry, patience, positivity, humor, athleticism. Their gifts were irrefutably genetic, but like all young ideas, they required development. I provided this through simple encouragement and advice. I found opportunities for each girl to exercise her ability, impacting my other campers.
The child I observed took initiative while playing with toys and participating in activities. She also explored by trying new games that she had not played before. The child’s overall development was appropriate for her
Research suggests that children who demonstrate secure attachment styles go on to have more positive social interactions which lead to learning how to trust others and increases self-esteem (Zastrow & Kirst-Ashman, 2013). Additionally, it is important for social workers to know the what contributes to children obtaining secure attachment. Zastrow and Kirst-Ashman (2013) highlight that caregivers which spend significant time with their child, react to their child’s needs, the caregiver has a deep commitment to the child and are emotionally responsive, and a caregiver is present over a long period.

Supporting a child’s healthy social and emotional growth takes commitment from all primary caregivers involved in the child’s life: mothers, fathers, grandparents, child care providers and other key adults. Young children observe caregivers’ relationships, and this shapes their expectations for how people treat each other. Young children attain social emotional competence when adults have positive interactions with infants and toddlers in their care. Repeated interactions lead to predictable relationships, because the infant or young child begins to know how the caregiver will respond to him or her. This pattern of responses creates the emotional connection the child has to the caregiver.
The main focus of the findings center around the support a family of young students must have for the student to be successful. The more involvement an intervention method has with families, the more successful the outcome for young children. Early childhood classrooms which utilize an RTI model for intervention, “have the potential to optimize learning opportunities for all children” (Lieberman-Betz, Vail, & Chai, 2013, p. 65). These models also allow for greater inclusion of young children with special needs into preschool classrooms. Having a
