Description

This course will help participants to understand that when they develop a positive social and emotional climate in the care setting and provides nurturing relationships with young children, the young child feels more secure in the environment and more likely to feel comfortable learning and growing. Such relationships are likely to lead to a more emotionally secure and independent child, which will foster success in school.
