Child care for infants and toddlers, if done well, can enrich children’s early experience. Child care providers are children’s first teachers, and they play an integral role in systems of early childhood education. The kids undergone through quality care from a young age will have a significant impact on the future successes of children. The main focus of childcare is on the development of the child, whether that be mental, social, or psychological.
The curriculum for a child of 0 to 3 years is based upon a sound understanding of child development and appropriate practices while taking into account the individual needs and temperaments of each child in care. The curriculum of infant care should include following points:
