NAEYC CODE OF ETHICS - IDEALS

I-1.3—To recognize and respect the unique qualities, abilities, and potential of each child.
I want every child to have the opportunity to learn and become the best person they can be.  As an educator we need to understand how a child learns. We need to create a learning environment that is best suited for each individual child.
I-1.8—To support the right of each child to play and learn in an inclusive environment that meets the needs of children with and without disabilities.
I believe all children should learn through play, which is the best way to learn. Each child should feel comfortable and have a place that is suited for them. Each child should have a learning environment that has the correct resources for them.
I-1.12—To work with families to provide a safe and smooth transition as children and families move from one program to the next.
Children do not have the say on which daycare they have to go to. They don’t have the choice if they move to another daycare. As an educator we can make the transition smooth for each child. Working closely with the family and how they adapted to the old daycare will allow us to create a smooth transition.
