Thank you ALL!
Thank you to all of you who have supported my journey to further my education in early childhood. Thank you for your insights, your words of encouragement, your interest, and your dedication to being an educator. I hope the best for each of you in your endeavors. It is great to know that there are people who truly care about children and want these children to succeed. It keeps me motivated to continue to fight the good fight for excellent education for every child.

Code of Ethics
Early Childhood Professional Ideals
To participate in building support networks for families by
providing them with opportunities to interact with program staff, other
families, community resources, and professional services (NAEYC, 2005, p. 4).
The importance of support is what
drives people to continue to help each other. Knowing that someone has your
back every step of the way can positively influence a child and those around
him/her.
To base program practices upon current knowledge and
research in the field of early childhood education, child development, and
related disciplines, as well as on particular knowledge of each child (NAEYC,
2005, p. 2).
The importance of current teaching
is what will keep ideas fresh and new. Children learn different today than they
did ten years ago, especially with advancements in technology.
We shall recognize our responsibility to improve the developmental outcomes of children and to provide services and support in a fair and equitable manner to all families and children (The Division for Early Childhood, 2000, p.3).
The
importance of being fair is what brings respect and honor to leaders. People
desire to be
treated fairly in all aspects of
life, and early childhood is no exception.
