Introducing

Narelle Wyatt

 

Narelle Wyatt was born in Melbourne and moved to the Gold Coast in 1986 with her family. Narelle was educated at Saint Michaels School on the Gold Coast where she completed her Secondary School education. 

Narelle holds a Certificate 3 in Office Administration and works as an Office Administration Assistant. Currently Narelle is studying a Certificate 3 in Community Services (Children’s Studies), and intends to further her studies to complete the Diploma. 

The Book “I Know My Daddy Loves Me” gave Narelle the opportunity to enhance her studies and explore the area of childhood development. The bond between a father and a daughter is a unique relationship and this book highlights day to day family situations that children encounter.  

The strength of a bond between parents and the child is determined by the interaction that takes place throughout infancy, childhood and beyond.  

This is the foundation that children require to one day grow and become socially competent, self assured and successful. 

This story demonstrates how children experience different situations and gives examples of typical reactions and communication styles within the family unit. It also gives examples of how children process issues relating to discipline and their need to be loved and nurtured within different family environments.  

The importance of the father participating and sharing the role in the daily care of a child enhances that child’s development, as both parents offer different skills. Fathers are predominantly more playful and encourage risk taking through rough and tumble play, particularly with boys. Mothers tend to read to the child and encourage more generalised secure form of play.  

As children become more independent and try to exercise more control within their environment, the parent’s role in supervising becomes more difficult. As a child’s cognitive and social skills further develop they engage in complex and imaginative types of play by themselves and with others.  

The child becomes able to use mental representation to assess a situation; however their perceptions of the world are sometimes illogical in early development years. The functioning of the family unit is more crucial to a child’s well being than its structure. The most important aspect is whether a child’s home situation is relatively stable, conflict free and supportive. Even if the parents accomplish this in a separated situation 

Together a mother and a father are more likely to meet a child’s needs from a Biological, Cognitive and Social perspective.

 Just a small sample:

Hello, my name is Nellie and I am 6 years old.

This is my house. It is a big house with a verandah and I have a swing in the garden too. My house is number 3 Lancelot Court.

 

I live here with my family. I have two brothers, an older brother called David, and a younger brother called Bennie baby.

 

David is 8 years old. He gets everything he wants because he is older. His room is very messy and he throws his clothes on the floor when he comes in from football.
