post three ideals contained in the NAEYC and DEC codes of ethics that are meaningful to you, and explain their significance to your professional life.
Professional Collabration
“We shall honor and respect our responsibilities to colleagues while upholding the dignity and
autonomy of colleagues and maintaining collegial interprofessional and intraprofessional
relationships”.
What this means to me is having respect for the people that I work with everyday even though I might not agree with their opinions or attitudes. This is a form a professionalism that is not only seen by parents, upper management and other colleagues but by the children. We are a representation of where we work and the values that we hold. We are entrusted everyday with the lives of their children and to show respect to my colleagues and to keep confidentiality is a reflection of the values that I hold.
Professional development and Preparation
We shall support professionals new to the field by mentoring them in the practice of evidence and ethically based services
It is extremely hard first starting off in this field. Everything that you learn in the textbooks does not always apply to all children. There are things that they forget to teach as with how to handle three hurt children at once or what to do when a favorite blanket is lost at closing time. Anyone with a love of children and a commitment to this field should be taken under the wings over other senior staff to be mentored. They should taught ethically based services such as redirecting and taking to a child on their level. Such as the statement above we are entrusted with little hearts and this should not be taken lightly.
We shall be responsible for protecting the confidentiality of the children and families we serve by protecting all forms of verbal, written, and electronic communication.
I believe that this is one of the most important in the code of ethics. Everything should be kept in the strictest of confidence. I learned this early on in my career. No matter what is said or done we need to protect all children. You never reveal the names or identities of others when things go wrong. This is one of the biggest forms of respect that you could give our parents. You must do this whether you agree or disagree with the outcome of a situation. These children and families must be protected at all costs. This is something that I take very seriously and uphold everyday.

Code of Ethics (2009)
We shall demonstrate in our behavior and language respect and appreciation for the unique value
and human potential of each child.
1.We shall strive for the highest level of personal and professional competence by seeking and
using new evidence based information to improve our practices while also responding openly to
the suggestions of others.
I will always try to be trying to seek out new and better ways to improve my craft of teaching. I will make an active effort to seek out knowledge from just not NAEYC but other organizations like this. I will be open to new ideas and suggestions and try everyday to incorporate this into my work as a professional.
2.. We shall serve as advocates for children with disabilities and their families and for the
professionals who serve them by supporting both policy and programmatic decisions that
enhance the quality of their lives.
I will continue to be patient and professional with families whose children are special needs. I will patient and understanding with those that take a little longer to understand and create a curriculum that fits the need of each individual child.
3.We shall build relationships with individual children and families while individualizing the curricula
and learning environments to facilitate young children’s development and learning
I think this falls back to the statement before that each child has a different way of learning and the classroom should reflect this.
