The relationship between carers, families, workers and professionals needs to be a constructive and cooperative relationship. This can be developed by ensuring that diversity is respected and acknowledging cultural, religious and ethnic differences. This will be of benefit to the children and young people and the parents/carers will feel happy and confident to cooperate, and happy to leave their child in our care. In order to establish a good relationship with the home and to further maintain that relationship, parents/carers must be listened to and their views and wishes respected, as well as their right to confidentiality.
The aim is for the home and the care setting to share the caring responsibility for the child - contributing to children's emotional and developmental needs and identifying any concerns or successes/progress carefully and sharing them with the parents/carers. For example, if a child is unhappy having their nappy changed or getting dressed, this will need to be known in advance, or if specific items are used as the child is allergic to other items, this will need to be known in advance. This information is relayed by ensuring that the communication/working relationship between the care team and the parents/carers is good. It is important to share information with the care setting. There is no point in only one person knowing specific details. What would happen if that person was at home ill and the nappy needed changing - can a baby tell us that a specific cream affects their skin?
The parent/carer is the child's first educator and the most important person in their life and parents/carers' wishes, traditions, culture and beliefs must be respected, even if they are different to our own. Childcare workers and other professionals share the care of children with the parents/carers. Therefore, they need to know and understand the parents/carers' wishes for their child. This may mean a special diet or special arrangements for storing food, religious holidays or types of clothing. Knowledge of other cultures may be required in order to avoid insulting parents/carers and children or making other people feel uncomfortable. It is important to be positive and cooperative when dealing with parents/carers in order to help the children. Therefore, it is important to respect their beliefs, even if those beliefs are different to the worker's beliefs.
Other workers and other professionals' wishes and choices must also be considered. In order to develop a professional attitude when working with children, we must be willing to respect the viewpoints of others, for the benefit of families/carers.
Specific characteristics need to be adopted such as:
Mae angen i'r berthynas rhwng gofalwyr, teuluoedd/gofalwyr, gweithwyr a phobl broffesiynol fod yn berthynas adeiladol a chydweithredol. Gellir meithrin hyn drwy sicrhau parchu amrywiaeth a chydnabod gwahaniaethau diwylliannol, crefyddol ac ethnig. Bydd hyn o fudd i'r plant a phobl ifanc a bydd y rhieni/gofalwyr yn teimlo'n hapus ac yn hyderus i gydweithio, ac yn hapus i adael eu plentyn yn ein gofal. Er mwyn sefydlu perthynas dda â'r cartref a chynnal y berthynas honno wedyn, rhaid gwrando ar rieni/gofalwyr a pharchu eu safbwyntiau a'u dymuniadau, yn ogystal â'u hawl i gyfrinachedd.
Y nod yw rhannu'r gofal am y plentyn rhwng y cartref a'r lleoliad gofal - mae angen cyfrannu at anghenion emosiynol ac anghenion datblygiad y plant, gan nodi unrhyw bryderon neu lwyddiannau/cynnydd yn ofalus a rhannu hynny gyda'r rhieni/gofalwyr. Er enghraifft, os nad yw plentyn yn hapus wrth gael newid ei glwt neu wrth wisgo, bydd angen cael gwybod am hynny ymlaen llaw, neu os defnyddir nwyddau arbennig oherwydd bod gan y plentyn alergedd i bethau eraill, bydd angen cael gwybod hynny ymlaen llaw. Mae'r wybodaeth hon yn cael ei throsglwyddo drwy sicrhau bod y cyfathrebu/y berthynas weithio rhwng y tîm gofal a'r rhieni/gofalwyr yn dda. Mae'n bwysig rhannu gwybodaeth gyda'r lleoliad gofal. Nid oes pwynt i un person yn unig wybod manylion penodol. Rhaid ystyried beth a fyddai'n digwydd petai'r person hwnnw gartref yn sâl a bod angen newid clwt - a all babi ddweud bod eli arbennig yn effeithio ar ei groen?
Y rhiant/gofalwr yw addysgwr cyntaf y plentyn a'r person pwysicaf yn ei fywyd a rhaid parchu dymuniadau, traddodiadau, diwylliant a chredoau'r rhieni/gofalwyr, hyd yn oed os yw'r rheini'n wahanol i'n rhai ni. Mae gweithiwr gofal plant a gweithwyr proffesiynol eraill yn rhannu gofal plant gyda'r rhieni/gofalwyr. Felly, mae angen iddynt wybod a deall beth y mae'r rhieni/gofalwyr yn ei ddymuno ar gyfer eu plentyn. Gallai hyn olygu diet arbennig a threfniadau arbennig ar gyfer storio bwyd, gwyliau crefyddol neu fathau o ddillad. Efallai y bydd angen cael gwybod am ddiwylliannau eraill er mwyn osgoi pechu yn erbyn rhieni/gofalwyr a phlant neu wneud i bobl eraill deimlo'n annifyr. Mae'n bwysig bod yn gadarnhaol ac yn gydweithredol wrth ymwneud â rhieni/gofalwyr er mwyn helpu'r plant. Felly, mae'n bwysig parchu eu credoau, hyd yn oed os ydynt yn wahanol i gredoau’r gweithiwr.
Rhaid ystyried hefyd ddymuniadau a dewisiadau gweithwyr eraill a gweithwyr proffesiynol eraill. Os am feithrin agwedd broffesiynol wrth weithio gyda phlant, mae’n rhaid bod yn barod i barchu safbwyntiau eraill a hynny er budd teuluoedd.
