Three ideas in the NAEYC code of conduct that is meaningful to
me are:
·
Creating
and maintaining safe and healthy settings that foster children’s social,
emotional, cognitive, physical development and that respect their dignity and
their contributions.
o
This is meaningful to me because it stressed the
importance of caring for the whole child and respecting them as individuals.
·
Ensure
that each child’s culture, language, ethnicity, and family structure are
recognized and valued in the program.
o
This is meaningful to me because it is critical that
each child’s background is respected.
When children feel they are welcomed or an equal part of the program,
they have a greater opportunity for learning more.
·
Develop
relationships of mutual trust and create partnerships with families we serve.
o
Partnerships with families is the cornerstone to
helping children become successful through sharing information. Relationships with families allows
professionals to learn more about the child.
