Based on the analysis of theoretical literature and empirical data, it was determined that a great number of fears among modern children is an urgent problem for preschool educational institutions. The purpose of the work is to examine the fears of preschoolers and make recommendations for preventive work with them. Methods of empirical research: ascertaining experiment; testing according to the methods: C-scale "Fears and worries in children" (A. I. Zakharov), drawing test "My family"; anxiety test (R. Tamml, M. Dorki, V. Amen) (for diagnosing children), anxiety test by Ch. D. Spielberger (interpreted by Yu. L. Khanin) (for diagnosing mothers); methods of mathematical and statistical data processing are represented by Spearman's rank correlation criterion. The study was conducted on the basis of the Municipal state preschool educational institution "Kindergarten No. 7" of the Yemanzhelinsky municipal district of the Chelyabinsk region (N = 60). As a result, the authors revealed statistically significant correlations of fears with the general level of anxiety of the child, the general level of personal anxiety of the mother, and the child's ideas about his/her family. Therefore, a comprehensive program of preventive work is required, taking into account the level of anxiety of children, the anxiety of their mothers and the peculiarities of family upbringing. The most commonly used preventive measures are those that provide information for a better understanding of problems and their resolution. Most of these prevention programs involve cognitive-behavioral approaches, which explains why most of the preventive measures were found in the field of pedagogy. But this pedagogical process must necessarily start with a diagnosis, which is necessary for the development of appropriate preventive strategies (for example, the formation of problem-solving skills, self-esteem or social support). Pedagogical interaction should be highly professional and begin with a diagnosis based on a battery of tests that we have tested. We recommend holding a series of educational meetings, trainings for parents on managing their own anxieties, discussing traumatic behavior by means of conferences, videos, lectures or newsletters.

The preservation and promotion of human health is one of the complex and important issues that has not lost its significance from antiquity to the present time. The task of protecting the young generation is also important for modern civilized society, since the future of the nation is determined by the condition of health and quality of life of new members of society. According to the Research Institute of Hygiene and Prevention of Diseases of Children, Adolescents and Youth, the health status of preschoolers has degraded sharply over the past decades. A healthy lifestyle plays a leading role in a variety of factors affecting the physical development and health of children. It should be noted that this problem is recognized at the government level in the field of education: for example, issues of health preservation and measures to improve the condition of children's health are necessarily reflected in the Law "On Education", the National Doctrine of Education of the Russian Federation, in the Concept of Modernization of Russian Education for the period up to 2025, in the Federal State Educational Standards of preschool education, the Federal Target Program for the Development of Education up to 2025, etc. However, despite the implementation of federal legislation on the issue of health promotion, the search for a solution to the problem of initiating preschoolers into a healthy lifestyle remains relevant due to the fact that most teachers of preschool educational organizations do not consider the physical development of children as a priority goal of their professional activities. The purpose of our research is as follows: to theoretically substantiate and experimentally test the model of building up the competence of teachers of preschool educational organizations in the field of initiating preschoolers into a healthy lifestyle. The theoretical significance of the study consists in the fact that the idea of the specifics of the professional competence of an educator in terms of initiating preschoolers into a healthy lifestyle has been expanded, the components of the professional competence of a teacher of a preschool educational organization in the field of initiating pre-school students into a healthy lifestyle have been identified; optimal diagnostic tools for building up the professional competence in the field of initiating preschoolers into a healthy lifestyle have been selected and developed; a theoretical model of building up the teacher's professional competence in the field of initiating preschoolers into a healthy lifestyle is constructed; a comparative analysis of the manifestation of the professional competence components among young and experienced teachers of a preschool educational organization in the field of a healthy lifestyle of preschoolers is made. The practical significance of the study is due to the fact that the developed diagnostic program for building up the professional competence of a teacher of a preschool educational organization in the field of initiating preschoolers into a healthy lifestyle and the technology of its implementation can be used by educators of preschool educational organizations. The presented materials can form the basis for the development of methodological recommendations for teachers. The results obtained in the study can be widely used in the work of the methodological branch of education, in the work of professional methodological associations.
