CITATION Best Start Resource Centre (2010). A Child Becomes Strong: Journeying Through Each Stage of the Life Cycle. Toronto, Ontario, Canada. 4 A CHILD BECOMES STRONG: Journeying Through Each Stage Of The Life Cycle How to Use this Manual As our awareness and knowledge of our First Nations cultures and traditions grows, so does our honour and respect for these traditional ways. We created this manual to offer culturally specific teachings and information about First Nations child development/child rear- ing. It focuses on First Nations in Ontario. We developed this manual for a range of service providers who work with young First Nations families. This manual has information about: • First Nations child rearing practices; • developmental milestones; • healthy child development issues that are specific to First Nations people; • strategies to promote healthy child development; and • how parents can be positive role models. This is all done within a First Nations context. It speaks to the wholistic approach to supporting families and provides supportive strategies for each family member at various stages of the life cycle. We wrote this in a way that is strength-based. We try to respect a diversity of cultural values and beliefs. First Nations people led this project. The researcher/writers, key informants, advisory group, and Elders are all of First Nations heritage. The informa- tion in this manual only represents a small collection of the many cultural teachings that exist. As First Nations people, we use our environment to explain life. Our cultural teachings vary from nation to nation and from one geographic region to another, just as the environment differs. Our hope is that this manual will increase: • awareness of how First Nations children develop, from a traditional perspective; and • the practice and acceptance of traditional ways of helping children to develop, such as naming ceremonies, drumming, and fasting. We structured the manual around the life cycle teachings and broke it down into each stage of life. Many of these teachings were passed on through key informants. Although we created this manual focusing on families with young children, we include all the developmental stages of life to reflect a wholistic perspective of family wellness. WHO SHOULD USE THIS MANUAL? THIS MANUAL IS USEFUL FOR PEOPLE SUCH AS: • Counsellors • Doctors • Early childhood educators • Midwives • Nurses • Program managers • Teachers We wrote this manual for service providers who have a role in supporting healthy child development in First Nations children.

  • Four Directions Medicine Wheel Envisioned for Us by a Female Elder from the Anishnabe Nation
    The Medicine Wheel at the First Nations University of Canada is the Four Directions Medicine Wheel envisioned for us by a female Elder from the Anishnabe Nation. This is but one Medicine Wheel, and since there are many Medicine Wheels, some people may see the wheel differently. For example, there are age Medicine Wheels, tribal Medicine Wheels, wheels for the four sacred plants (cedar, sage, tobacco and sweetgrass), the four seasons, the four aspects of the self (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual), and personal Medicine Wheels. These wheels each have different colours, placements and meanings. The Four Directions Medicine Wheel as shared by a female Elder from the Anishnabe Nation “The Medicine Wheel was placed on Turtle Island by people thousands of years ago. For this Medicine Wheel, I want to honour one of the oldest things we have, which is our four directions. We seek knowledge from those four directions. We get power from those four directions. They pull stuff into our lives. When we call out to them in prayer, they will bring things to us. The four directions came with creation. We didn’t. We were the last thing created. And this is a garden, it’s coming from mother earth, so that’s where the four directions are coming from. When I look at a Four Directions Medicine Wheel, I see yellow in the east, blue in the south, red in the west, white in the north. The sun rises yellow in the east. It’s always going to rise in the east, and it’s always going to set in the west.

Direction was provided to turn the draft document into Report and to report back on activities. The COVID- 19 global pandemic interrupted a number of activities in 2020. For example, the Mushkegowuk Cup was postponed and the inability to meet face-to-face led to the cancellation of a many of meetings of the City of Timmins Indigenous Advisory Committee. Be that as it may, much progress was made in a number of strategic areas. Addressing Human Needs: Worked collaboratively with the Cochrane DSSAB, Living Space and Northern College to ensure the safest possible shelter services were available during the pandemic. Lobbied senior levels of government for support for the Mushkegowuk Council' s Fire Keepers Street Outreach application for funding. Worked collaboratively with the Timmins Native Friendship Centre and Living Space to ensure adequate winter shelter services and cold weather alerts during 2019-20. Timmins hosted 166 evacuees for a seventeen day period in August from Fort Hope, ensuring COVID- 19 protocols were in place including 24/7 on site nurses and access to a physician. Timmins supported the development of the Kanachihih Youth Treatment Centre.
