  • Family Child Care (Mixed-Age)

Early childhood educators are integral components to a child’s life. They are interacting with the children in their care for many hours each day and often witness a child’s growth and development in many areas. This is why it is crucial for caregivers to have the tools to support and encourage a child’s positive self-esteem and to help them develop a healthy self-concept. This course will discuss the importance of self-esteem, as well as how to recognize low self-esteem, and understand the reasons behind it, as well as how caregivers can avoid biased expectations and be positive role models.
Learning Outcomes:
  • Explain the difference between self-esteem and self-concept.
  • Discuss the best practices of supporting a child’s developing self-esteem.
  • List four ways to encourage a child’s healthy self-esteem.
  • Identify factors that contribute to the development of low self-esteem.
  • Explain how biased expectations affect self-esteem and how caregivers can use that knowledge to support a child’s self-esteem.
