It is human nature to inquire and question everything, children are no different. By offering the children a variety of different ways to learn I am able to help them meet their goals and encourage them to help/teach their peers. Continuing down the childhood professional career path I have found support in a variety of shapes and forms. Through the support of parents and fellow teachers I was able to continue my education in the childcare field. Creating those relationships was vital to my future and without my dedication to professionalism I would not have been able to create them. I feel through earning my CDA certificate I will be able to enhance the lives of my students and be able to provide a better quality of learning for them and to their families as well.

As an Early Educator, I see children as flower buds, that need my undivided attention and love. They need a safe and rich environment so they can blossom into strong and confident flowers. Like flowers, there is diversity among them, and it is my duty to accommodate and meet the needs of each flower, in order to help them grow. I see children as curious and active learners, and my job as an educator is to provide a safe and rich environment, where children can explore freely.
