Philosophy Assignment: A Reflective Moment

My vision for working with children: a child-led playful space that is open and inviting, inclusive and flexible from day to day.

In three years I see my greatest strengths with children to be: my patients, flexibility, and relationship building with families as well as my ability to adapt to the needs of the kids in my care.

I envision the early years environment: as flexible and nurturing. It should foster wonder and creativity in children as well as build pride within the community, a place for children, parents and educators to all feel included and valued.

I see children: as capable individuals with individual wants and needs.

I view families: to be very different, they know best for there child. All families need to be respected and valued as individuals.

I suspect that cultural diversity: will be something we can strive to understand better as it is part of our responsibility to do so.

I envision my colleagues: as knowledgeable collaborators with individual values and backgrounds of education or life in which to learn from and offer advice to.
