1.2 -To base program practices upon current knowledge and
research in the field of early childhood education, child development, and
related disciplines that are intended to direct practitioners to those as well
as on particular knowledge of each child.(NAEYC)
To open a non-profit based on evidence based practice is one
of my biggest goals. I truly
believe that every program should be based upon evidence based practice. This
ensures that the child in the program will receive beneficial results.
1.3—To recognize and respect the unique qualities, abilities,
and potential of each child. (NAEYC)
Each child is special and unique. Despite circumstances each
child can reach their fullest potential
1.10—To ensure that each child’s culture, language,
ethnicity, and family structure are recognized and valued in the program.
(NAEYC)
Working in
urban communities, I saw the importance of the children’s culture. This helps
the child form their identity, and feel connected. It is important that child care providers respect
language, ethnicity , and family structure of each child.
We shall demonstrate, in our behavior and language, respect
and appreciation for the unique value and human potential of each child."
(DEC)
Uplifting and encouraging children helps them reach their potential. Children need a caring nurturing enviorment so that they can feel comfortable to flourish.

What type of non profit would you like to open ?
I have worked for both profit and non-profit. In a non-profit you typically pay your staff more, which means you can hire qualified staff; however, the pressure to meet numbers is still there.
Rachel,
I have enjoyed working with you over the last 8 weeks and hope we will stay in touch after the course ends. I can tell you have a lot of wonderful ideas and care a lot about the children and families you work for. I wish you all the best on your journey in this career. I know you will be making many more memorable moments! You have a lot to offer. :-)
Sincerely,
Jill
