Code of Ethics in Early Child Development

My Son Nathanael @ Hoops Pre-School (0-5) 

In early childhood one must consider high standards with integrity in the field of early childhood. Demonstrating awareness in the field and must encounter a standard of high integrity of trust our youth future. Together, we can ensure a trustworthy bond between the child and the family best practices.

A second encounter would be, a good leader should be able to both lead and follow. 2005, January. I believe as educators in this field of early childhood one must encounter self-awareness, integrity and advocating for young children. Building a strong foundation with creativity, collaboration and Capacity building or known as team building with all available resources. Working for a common good to advocated to those who are unfortunately.

Last encounter is to understanding the core values and its conduct in early childhood. As an educator one should be familiar by identifying a variety of dilemmas and social aspects in the field. Seeking knowledge to understanding the history, and its benefit to all families and the community at large.

Inspirational quotes

Erik Erikson 

"Children love and want to be loved and they very much prefer the joy of accomplishment to the triumph of hateful failure. Do not mistake a child for his symptom."

"Hope is both the earliest and the most indispensable virtue inherent in the state of being alive. If life is to be sustained hope must remain, even where confidence is wounded, trust impaired." 

What is Passion 

What is Motivation 

What is Wisdom

"It's not all about you. You have to take your ego out of it and think what is best for this child- Renatta M. Cooper
