Educational Philosophy:
As an early childhood teacher,
I feel that it is important for a child to feel comfortable in
his/her setting to do well. I strongly believe that a child needs
to be nurtured and loved to succeed. Once a child feels secure
he/she will be able to feel comfortable taking risks in a safe
and loving environment. Children develop at different stages,
and it is important to meet each child's emotional and developmental
needs. A child is “a work in progress” and I feel that with patience,
understanding, and love, all children will have a strong foundation
to succeed.
