In this popular book, Hearron and Hildebrand position the child development program among the key components of a child's “ecosystem.” They show high-quality children's programs as essential support for a child's family—not as islands of education unconnected to the rest of a child's world. Coverage is clearly based on developmentally appropriate practices and the indicators of quality established by the NAEYC and organized around thirteen core competencies, with a full chapter devoted to each. The book is written in friendly, easy-to-understand language, and bolstered by learning aids, examples, and exercises that capture the reader's attention and keep it. For pre-school teachers and day-care personnel.

This review is from: Management of Child Development Centers (5th Edition) (Paperback)
The child care industry sometimes forgets that children are people first. This book reminds us to respect children and those who care for them. It should be used for anyone working in or directing a child care center.
