Personality
personality at first Emily was very shy and hid behind her mum for the first 10 minutes. After that Emily started to show off in front of me pulling all her toys and making herself laugh. every time she did something she would look to see if someone was watching. she didn’t cry at any point of the visit. I think Emily is always shy in front of strangers, but it doesn’t take her long to let out her strong, outgoing and lively personality. Environment Emily lives in a 4 bedroom house with 2 kitchens and a conservatory.
Family background
Emily lives in a very crowded house(10 people).this involves her 4 sisters, 4 brother and mum + dad.she is the youngest of them all which makes it harder to blend.i think that this is a good idea as she has lots of help and encouragement but it also means that she gets less attention than the rest.this is a nuclear group(but is living in foster home for a while).her parents work separately, her mum works as an apex worker(elderly care worker)and her dad is an environment engineer.
Home and local area
Emily shares a 2 bedded bedroom with her sisters. She mainly plays in her room as there is never room anywhere else to play. Outside she would play in a little corner in the back yard. She was not really use to playing with other so she would just play on her own.the only safety precaution I could think of was how crammed they all are.emily was lots of toys ,which she dosent really play with. Mainly she plays with the doll, pram and excessories as this was her favourite 2nd birthday present.
