Social-Emotional Growth & Socialization explores topics on social-emotional development in the first three years, temperaments of children and caregivers, socialization, guidance and discipline environments, and gaining an understanding of children's behavior. Training will begin with an overview of the basic concepts of early social-emotional growth and socialization and their application to the group care context. An emphasis is placed on the development of a nurturing relationship between the infant and caregiver.
The overview addresses the importance of responsive caregiving, the individualization of care through an understanding of infant temperament, the critical role of family and culture in early identity development, exploring developmentally appropriate play strategies with ages of infancy, creating supportive physcal environments, and stages of emotional development.
This is a hybrid training and participants must complete the face to face sessions and online assessment in order to receive credit.
