the effectiveness of their work
with children. It helps them make decisions based on what they know about
children. Teachers who know how children think and learn, recognize that
children learn best when they
are given many opportunities to explore materials and their environment
with their peers and adults. Knowledgeable caregivers are able to build on
what children already know and can do but also make them stretch toward
what they don't know yet or are unable to do without help.

achievable goals

have a more stable workforce. Employees have fewer absences and late

child care is the first step to school success. Children enter school with
foundational skills that they need to be successful. When parents feel that
their child is in a safe, loving and stimulating environment they feel more at
ease at work.

go through separation anxiety, so do parents.

parents preferences, choices and concerns for their children. Be considerate
