Below is a scripted preview. The real thing lives inside the educator app.
Send Maya home with a personalised 'Invisible String' bedtime story to reinforce attachment and prepare for tomorrow's transition.
During morning transition, Maya demonstrated emerging self-regulation when supported by a familiar attachment ritual. With her mother's 'invisible string' visualisation, Maya independently progressed from clinging to confidently engaging with peer Asha at the puzzle table — evidence of secure base behaviour aligned with EYLF Outcome 1 (Identity) and Outcome 3 (Wellbeing).
