Caregiver Mental Health: You Can't Pour from an Empty Cup (*Required for ALL ICCP providers)
Providing child care can be extremely rewarding, but at times, it can feel stressful and overwhelming. As caregivers, it is important to be mindful of your own overall well-being, including your mental health, so that you can provide quality care to the children in your facility or business.
Understanding and addressing caregiver mental health can assist with prevention of child abuse, neglect, and maltreatment. Adults who take care of their own mental health with intentional and reflective practices are better equipped to support children's process toward social emotional competence.
