Paulette Jaquet Travaglini:
‘The time before mealtime – How children experience this moment’
How does a child experience the time before their own meal, while another child is being fed or cared for during this time? Paulette Jaquet Travaglini's presentation focuses on a central everyday situation: the time before mealtime. She shows how this moment can become a meaningful experience for children's development.
Using long-term video observations in a facility inspired by Pikler pedagogy, she highlights the conditions that provide children with security and guidance in a clear and understandable way. This time is not experienced as mere passive waiting, but as a moment to oneself, supported by a dynamic of taking turns and the prospect of a special moment with the educator. Everyone knows when their turn will come, which structures the child's experience and allows them to engage actively and independently in this moment, interacting with their environment and their peers.
About Paulette Jaquet Travaglini
Paulette Jaquet combines two professional perspectives – nursing and psychology – with a clear focus on early childhood. As the long-time director of a nursery with 80 places, many of which are for children under the age of two, she has intensively explored the question of how an individual and lasting relationship with young children is possible in a collective setting.
Her encounter with Pikler pedagogy, inspired by a lecture by Anna Tardos, was a turning point in her life. In close collaboration with her team, she has implemented a profound transformation of the pedagogical concept over several years, moving towards an approach characterised by respect, attention and quality relationships.
Paulette Jaquet Travaglini has been an active member of the board of directors of the Pikler International association since its inception. This presentation is part of the Pikler International General Assembly.
Members will receive access details by email.
