Time Well Spent


As I prepare my final blog of my Master’s program, I would like to share about three deeply felt learning from this course. The first thing is the need for me to continue to educate myself in the field of early childhood. I feel that this is important, especially if I am going to work with and on the behalf of young children. Plus continuous learning helps me to stay abreast of the latest research and best practices that work well with children.  The next thing that I learned is that field is still in need of more quality early childhood professionals with more and more mothers having to return to work to help provide for the family, more children are entering childcare programs all across the country and they are in need of quality, knowledgeable early childhood professionals that can rise to the call. Lastly, the need to embrace the families that we serve is another thing that I learned. Embracing the families will be the greatest way for us to help the children that we serve.
One long term goal that I have for myself is to bring to reality my capstone project. I really would one day like to put this challenge and response into action, because there is a need for such programs to exist in my community.
To my colleagues and instructor, I would really like to thank each of you for your continued support all through-out this program. It has been a long and tough journey, but thank God we made it. I wish each of you the best in all of your endeavors and my God keep each and every last one of you and you continue to go forth in your professional careers.
