🏫 Samarbeid med ansatte i barnehagen – slik støtter du barnets trivsel
Good collaboration between parents and kindergarten staff gives the child security and support in everyday life. When parents and staff communicate openly and share information, everyone understands the child better — what it needs, what brings joy, and how to support its development. Together, we create an environment where the child can feel safe and thrive.
🌟 Why is collaboration important?
When home and kindergarten communicate well, the child experiences:
👉 That adults work together
👉 That it is safe to express feelings and needs
👉 Easier and more secure transitions between home and kindergarten
Example: If the child has had a restless night, staff can give the child a calmer start to the day and adjust expectations.
🛠️ How to build good collaboration in practice
🗣️ 1. Be open and present in daily life
Trust is built through small, everyday interactions. When you show interest in what happens at kindergarten, it strengthens the relationship.
👉 Take time for a short chat during drop-off or pick-up
👉 Ask questions that show you are engaged
Example: “How did the trip go today? My child was really looking forward to it!”
❤️ 2. Share important information about the child
When staff know more about what is going on at home, they can better support the child throughout the day.
👉 Tell them about changes at home that might affect the child
👉 Share your child’s joys and interests as well
Example: If the child is suddenly reluctant to go to kindergarten, it may help the staff to know about sleep changes or new experiences at home.
🔄 3. Be constructive if you have concerns
If you notice something concerning, bring it up calmly and constructively. Often, you can find good solutions together.
👉 Request a private conversation if needed
👉 Describe what you have observed and ask for the staff’s perspective
Example: “We’ve noticed our child seems unsettled after kindergarten. How do you see it during the day?”
❤️ What does the child gain from good collaboration?
👉 A sense that adults communicate and understand each other
👉 Greater security and well-being in kindergarten
👉 Better support in social and emotional development
