Co-regulation for 5-10 year olds
10 month old Tilly is a sweet and cuddly baby with a smile that can light up any room. She thrives on interaction and enjoys being around people, always eager to engage and share her happiness. Curious by nature, she loves being picked up and played with, making strong eye contact and responding warmly to those around her.
Naturally sociable, Tilly seeks attention and delights in making others smile. She recognises familiar faces and loves hearing her name, responding with excitement. Her fascination with the world around her is evident, especially when she’s outdoors. She adores trees—their colours, the way they move in the breeze, and the gentle sounds they make. A trip to the park is one of her favourite activities.
Tilly does have some challenges and is under the care of a number of consultants as we try to ensure she is given the best possible start consequently, we’re looking for a family who can embrace some uncertainties and advocate for her as she grows. She recognises colours and sounds on television and enjoys watching her favourite programs. Bath time is another highlight of her day—she loves splashing in the bubbles and will happily play until they’ve all disappeared.
Her daily routine is well established. After a restful sleep, she wakes up ready for her milk. Playtime follows, where she giggles at funny faces and sounds before heading out for a walk to the park. After an exciting day, she may have a nap before enjoying dinner, a warm bath, cuddles, and bedtime.
Tilly is full of energy, her fine motor skills are developing and she is just beginning to grasp small toys and play with her toes! She shares a strong bond with her foster carer and continues to make incredible progress.
She is in a good routine and sleeping well thanks to the routines set by her foster carer. Socially, she is a delight—she adores company and beams with joy when she hears her name.
