We learn throughout our lives, it begins the day we are born and the early years are critical to that learning.
Young children use all their senses to discover the world and adults involved in their education must do
likewise. Working with young children requires patience and energy, commitment and dedication, but
most of all it demands creativity and a sense of fun. Young children live in the present and the role of an
early years educator is to cultivate appropriate care and developmental environments for those children to
grow in body and mind.
