The Early Childhood Connection
Early childhood education is teaching young children formally and informally with educational programs that guides their growth and development between the ages birth to eight years old. This is the most vital years of a child's life as they are entirely dependent on their adult caregivers to nurture, guide, care, provide, and protect them. These all influence the overall success of child development as the purpose of early childhood education is to provide children with strategies that help them develop the emotional, social, physical, and cognitive skills needed to become lifelong learners.
About The Early Childhood Connection
At the Early Childhood Connection our main goal is to educate, inform, and provide support for young children and their families to navigate the early childhood years seamlessly. Early childhood years are especially important as this is when young children have experiences that promotes lifelong learning, growth, and development. Family involvement plays a vital role in creating these experiences, so, our aim is to provide the necessary tools and support to help prepare families to nurture their children as they navigate the ever-changing world around them.
Our Focus
Our main focus is family involvement and how it influences child development which is the process through which young children go through growth and developmental stages. These growth and development include not only the physical changes but also social, emotional, behavioral, speech and language and cognitive. At each stages children develop skills necessary for understanding, manipulating, and interacting in the world around them. Children develop at their own pace so they may reach the developmental phases at different times. It is important to observe and monitor how children are developing to ensure that they meet their developmental milestones. Child development can be actively enhanced through real life experiences, best practices, intervention and therapies which all aim to ensure children are supported in meeting their milestones or to at least help them master these developmental skills.
