Examining Code of Ethics

After reviewing the NAEYC Code of Ethics this week, there were several that seemed meaningful to me but I chose these three:
—To develop relationships of mutual trust and

create partnerships with the families we serve.

-We shall strive to build individual relationships

with each child; make individualized adaptations in

teaching strategies, learning environments, and

curricula; and consult with the family so that each

child benefits from the program

—To be familiar with the knowledge base of early

childhood care and education and to stay informed

through continuing education and training.

These are important to me because we as professionals have to create a trusting relationship with the families so we can become engaged in the child's development process in and out of your care. We also must stay up to date on new research and program ideas that will help our children learn in a more effective manner. Therefore, we need to continue our education so that we can stay ahead with the newer developments.
