The Power of Positive
Gentle reminders for practicing self-kindness and compassion.
Family, friend, and neighbor caregivers make a huge difference in the lives of young children, their families, and our communities. You help children learn and grow and set them up for success in school and in life. You also provide necessary and trusted care for families, helping us all to build stronger, smarter, and kinder communities. In other words, you’re amazing!
During difficult moments, it can sometimes be hard to focus on the positive and remember how important you are. Should doubt ever start to creep in, try these strategies to practice (and model for the children in your care) some self-love. Print and hang this poster in a place where you can see it often as a reminder.
