Mentoring powers professional growth
|
Mentoring matters in early childhood education and care settings. When effectively implemented, it's a powerful strategy that can significantly influence an educator's professional development and growth at any time throughout their career.
But to be successful, a supportive culture and structure are necessary as mentoring is not a one size fits all model.

Building coping skills in early childhood
|
As an early learning educator during this global pandemic, both you and the children in your care are having to cope with a great deal of stress, uncertainty, anxiety, and upheaval on a day-to-day basis.
Educators have an important role in supporting the children in their care (and in many instances their families as well) to deal with their stresses and anxieties, which is of course is an added pressure.
So, how will you know when a child that you care for needs your help managing any stress they feel about these often upsetting changes in their world? And how can you help them to build the coping skills that they need, while also managing your own?
