NAEYC and DEC Code of Ethics

1. Appreciate childhood as a unique and valuable stage of the human life cycle
2.Respect diversity in families, children, and colleagues
3.We shall demonstrate our respect and concern for children, families, colleagues, and others with whom we work,   honoring their beliefs, values, customs, languages, and culture.  Again, we cannot be advocates without respect.  We all learn from each other and children teach us as well through their innocence.

These three code of ethics are very important to me because they all represent what I believe will make me successful in working with kids. I believe that all families are diiferent, but for the most part want the same success for their child as we educational professionals do. I try my best to live by theese code of ethics on a daily basis and also try to help my teachers do so as well.
