<div style="text-align: justify;">
Early childhood education and care (ECEC) in the US includes a wide range of part-day, full-school-day, and full-work-day programs, under educational, social welfare, and commercial auspices, funded and delivered in a variety of ways in both the public and the private sectors, designed sometimes with an emphasis on the “care” component of ECEC and at other times with stress on “education” or with equal attention to both. Although ECEC scholars and advocates are increasingly convinced of the need to integrate all these program types, categorical funding coupled with diverse societal values continue to support the differences. The result is a fragmented ECEC system, of wide-ranging quality and with skewed access, but with some movement in recent years toward the integration of early childhood education and care.</div>

When a student has a hard time with a math function or a written passage in English, they can seek out extra help from their professors or tutors. So, if parents are having similar problems when trying to sort through the sometimes dizzying number of educational decisions for their child, they might want someone in their corner as well.</div>

An educational consultant is an independent expert in learning that works with schools, families, and students to find the best strategy in attaining an educational or academic goal. Much like a guidance counsellor helps students sift through their options for post-secondary programs and future careers, an educational consultant assists families in deciding what their values are and what's important for them in an educational experience, and presents them with options that they believe are the best fit.</div>

Preschool (or prekindergarten) is a broad term used to describe curriculum-based early childhood education. Research shows that quality preschool education produces gains in a child’s learning and development, particularly for economically disadvantaged children. But in the U.S., the amount and type of preschool children attend varies widely — some kids attend one year of partial-day preschool before entering kindergarten; others are in full-day, school-like settings beginning at age 2; some children don’t attend preschool at all.</div>

On top of the choice of whether or not to attend preschool, at what age and for how long, parents also have different educational philosophies to consider — like Montessori, play-based programs, and Waldorf. For parents, the process of determining what is best for your toddler when it comes to early childhood education can be daunting. To get you started, Laura Gradman, a licensed professional counselor, education consultant, and owner of the Chicago Preschool Pro, has provided tips to help you navigate these choices.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #282828; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">For teachers, parents can be your worst enemy or your best friend. Over the course of the last decade, I have worked with a handful of the most difficult parents, as well as many of the best parents. I believe that the majority of parents do a terrific job and genuinely try their best. The truth is that being a parent is not easy. We make mistakes, and there is no way we can be good at everything. Sometimes as a parent it is critical to rely on and seek advice from experts in certain areas.

<span class="MainText" style="color: #333333; line-height: 17px;">In your work with early childhood educators, you want to make sure you're equipping them to create environments that are rich in opportunities for language-learning throughout the day. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4d4d4d; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px;">
<span class="MainText" style="color: #333333; line-height: 17px;">Since the development of language and social skills in the early years is so important to the future academic success of preschool children, early childhood educators need to be sensitive and responsive to their students’ communication needs in order for those skills to develop.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #4d4d4d; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px;">
<span class="MainText" style="color: #333333; line-height: 17px;">That’s why it’s so important for those who train or consult to educators to have practical, user-friendly resources to share with educators that will really help them understand how to promote children’s language and literacy development. It is also critical to be familiar with the principles of adult education so that you can facilitate educators’ learning in ways that foster retention and application of interactive strategies, making long-term behaviour change more likely.</span></div>

<b>Attend Back-to-School Night and Parent-Teacher Conferences</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kids do better in school when parents are involved in their academic lives. Attending back-to-school night at the start of the school year is a great way to get to know your child's teachers and their expectations. School administrators may discuss school-wide programs and policies, too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Attending parent-teacher conferences is another way to stay informed. These are usually held once or twice a year at progress reporting periods. The conferences are a chance to start or continue conversations with your child's teacher, and discuss strategies to help your child do his or her best in class. Meeting with the teacher also lets your child know that what goes on in school will be shared at home.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Visit the School and Its Website</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Knowing the physical layout of the school building and grounds can help you connect with your child when you talk about the school day. It's good to know the location of the main office, school nurse, cafeteria, gym, athletic fields, playgrounds, auditorium, and special classes.</div>

Bringing up a child is not an easy task for many parents as there are a lot of external factors that influence their physical, mental and emotional health. A child is exposed to a world of difficulties during its formative years. With the knowledge of child psychology, one can bring up their child the best. Renowned child psychologist<b> Justin Urbas</b> has some key tips that any parent or teacher can follow. Have a look - </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Key Child Psychology Tips for Parents and Teachers to Follow</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>1. Encourage them to express - </b>Parents must encourage their children to express their thoughts and desires without hesitation or fear. A child should not feel the need to suppress his/her ideas within themselves. Parents, teachers and other adults should all help children come out of their shell. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>2. Understand them better -</b> Understanding children is the key to good parenting and taking decisions that positively impact the lives of children. Parents must invest time and effort into understanding the likes and dislikes of their child. Attention must be paid to how the child reacts to certain social situations or other stimuli. Better understanding leads to a close bond between children and parents. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>3. Spend more time -</b> It is quite simple actually. Both parents need to spend ample time with their children, in order for the little ones not to feel neglected. A child that does feel neglected and has no one close to share experiences with, can grow up to be overtly introverted. It is a harsh fact that many parents are just running around fulfilling their professional responsibilities today. Still, they should actively try to find time for the children. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>4. Do not slap on burdens -</b> Realistically speaking, it is not wrong to set some expected goals for your child. Whether it’s academics or sports or creativity, a child who gains inspiration through effort can succeed. But many parents do the mistake of pressurizing their children too much. This has heavy negative impacts on their mental and emotional health. Try to be a little more considerate and appreciate the efforts of your child. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>5. Know that they react differently - </b>Parents and teachers are wrong to expect the same kinds of responses from children, as they do from adults. That is because the brain chemistry of a child and how he/she processes information are quite different. The sooner you understand this, the better it is for your child. Observe exactly how their reactions tend to vary in different circumstances. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>6. Be their biggest ally -</b> It is a sad truth that many children feel that their parents are quite rigid and strict, and even overbearing. This should not be the case at all. Sure, you are free to correct your child for transgressions. But remember to also be their biggest friend at all times. Recognize that they need your support at home, to be the strongest version of themselves. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These are some very simple child psychology tips that can make a world of difference in the lives of your children. After all, the wellbeing of a child is the primary concern of his or her parents. </div>

Raising a healthy child takes a lot of care and dedication on part of parents and teachers.

Psychology Tips To Know Your Child Better</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Keep a keen eye on them -</b> Any parent should be a keen observer of their children, their actions and their reactions. You can learn a lot more about your child this way. Take heed of their mannerisms, emotional responses, and expressions. Parents can also observe how their children react to certain situations and stimuli. Accordingly, you can modify your behavior towards them.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Look for signs of distress -</b> Do you find your child becoming particularly uncomfortable in any situations? Is he/she unusually nervous around other elders or children? These might be issues with their comfort zones, and such issues need to be overcome. With patient encouragement and care, you can help your child face such situations and come on top of them. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Be available for them -</b> A common scenario that many parents across the world face today is not being able to give enough of their time and attention to the children. This can have adverse effects on the psychology of a child, who may feel alone, neglected and rejected. So, as much as you can, be available to your children. Give them the love, attention and care they deserve and they will be happier. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Their brains are different - </b> The way in which a child would react to a particular stimulus or situation is quite different than that of an average adult. This is a fact that many parents fail to realize initially, and that is why misunderstandings arise. You really do have to be more patient with children, and leave some room for them to express themselves. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Do not overburden them - </b>Children do need to start studying and go to school, and do well in their academics. But at the same time, they should not feel overburdened by the pressures of academics. Having enough time for fun and amusement is quite vital for these growing brains. So please do not pile upon your burden of expectations until they are at a better, more mature age. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Converse with them deeply -</b> It is your responsibility as a parent to have meaningful and interesting conversations with your child. Ask them anything really, like how school is going, their playground friends, favorite dishes and more. Children’s communication skills improve at school and also at home. They will appreciate your efforts and gain better confidence to face the eventual challenges in life.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Keeping these psychology tips in mind can help you raise them better. You can always consult with an experienced child psychologist for qualified advice.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
In 2016, educators, lawmakers and researchers put a lot of time and effort into analyzing the true importance of early childhood education (ECE). Studies have concluded that, when done right, ECE provides lasting benefits to all students—although the impact is even greater among low-income students. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With the world of education constantly adapting to the changing times, it can be difficult to keep up with the trends that make ECE so effective. Whether you have children in preschool or you are working in the field, we compiled three trending topics to help keep you in the loop on the current and future trajectory of ECE.</div>
