Examining Codes of Ethics

Examining Codes of Ethics
  • I-1.1—To be familiar with the knowledge base of early childhood care and education and to stay informed through continuing education and training.
This ideal is significant to my professional life because I know that I can never learn enough about the early childhood field and will continue to train so that I can help train and encourage the children that I come encounter with.
  • I-1.3—To recognize and respect the unique qualities,abilities, and potential of each child.
Working and studying within the early childhood field I have learned that every child is different and I have learned how important it is to accept a child just as they are and learn to adapt.

  • 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. 
The family is one of the child's biggest support groups. When trying to make a difference in a child's life I have learned that being that support factor and showing them that you will work and help them along their journey no matter where it takes them.
