The Value of an Early Childhood Educator |
|
|
Early Childhood Educators in the province of BC:
- Have specialized college/university training and adhere to a Code of Ethics;
- Hold individual “Licenses to Practice” issued by the provincial government;
- Consider children’s developmental ages and stages in every facet of their work;
- Hold a core value of the importance of play in children’s natural development;
- Promote quality early childhood education;
- Work in provincially licensed and regulated community based childcare programs, preschools, Strong Start and other related programs.
Early Childhood Educators are the only social service provider whose wages are tied to a user fee system. Early childhood educators are passionate about their work and know their work positively influences and impacts children’s development. They deserve to be valued for the work they do.
