Abstract

The training and education of child care workers has undergone important changes, and the spectrum of professional preparation now ranges from agency-based in-service training to graduate level education. As a result, the role of supervision in child care is being re-assessed. This paper presents the historical influences and current conceptualizations of the supervisory relationship in social work, psychology and child care. An innovative approach to supervision based on a role systems model and an adaptation of the Johari Window is presented. The model is shown to be applicable and appropriate to child care supervision given its current state of development.
