The NAEYC has three code of ethics policies that impact my professional life:
I.1.7
To use assessment information to understand and support children's development and learning, to support instruction, and to identify children who may need additional services.
I.2.4
To listen to families, acknowledge and build upon their strength and competencies, and learn from families as we support them in their task of nurturing children.
I.2.8
To help family members understanding of their children and support the continuing development of their skills as parents.
These policies are significant to my professional life because I perform these duties at work on a daily basis. I enjoy being a teacher but I love being a parent advocate. I love being able to encourage parents to learn more about their child's education and facilitate and participate in their child's future.
