Introduction

Part A

1.The child I choose to observe is girl that is 2 years and 4 months old, I work at the Ece Lab at

North Las Vegas campus, the class I have is about 8 kids big . Her name is Naomi, we all call her

mimi, she likes being called by that.

2. The day care opens around 7;30am and the child arrives around 9 am , she usually never runs

any later than that for her arrival.

Part B - Base the following answers on your ​objective observation (Part A/2)​ of the child’s

interaction with their parent. (This is your interpretation of the objective observation.)

1. What attachment promoting behaviors do you see the child displaying? Very interactive,

sometimes very leading to situations and only prefers to play with certain kids and wants her

way.

2. How does the parent respond? They usually try to calm her down by saying to make the

right choice, then she starts running and kicking so they let her calm down and then go talk to her

again.
3. How does the caregiver respond? The caregiver usually responds that way sometimes or will

sit with her and calm her down by talking to her and having her make another play choice.

4. Can you tell how the parent feels about the child’s attachment to the caregiver? Definitely,

the child finds the trust in the caregiver to help her make the right choice and guide her to

success.

Part C - Base your answers on your ​objective observation (Part A/2)​ of the child’s interaction

with the caregiver. (This is your interpretation of the objective observation.)

1. What attachment-promoting behaviors do you see the child displaying? Getting excited

once she steps in class and hugging her, inviting her to play, and noticing when she is not their

and asking for her.

2. What evidence of the attachment dance do you observe? (Caregiver promoting attachment

behavior.)

She gives the c hoices that she knows they will beenfit them and include fun, she gets to know

them better and have small conversations about their day going.
Part D

1. How did you feel about this observation? Felt good, I learned a lot as I observe and how to

respond to tantrums or situations when the child is doing what is asked to do.

2. What advice might you give to the caregiver and/or parent? Definielty have her clean up

after herself and not let her throw everything and not ask her to pick it up just because they dont

want her to get upset and start a tantrum.
