Parents are the child’s first and most important teachers and have the greatest influence in their children’s lives. In order to meet the needs of children in your care, you and your staff will want to establish a positive relationship with each child’s family. Best Practice: Teachers and families work closely in partnership to ensure high quality care and learning experiences for children and parents feel supported and welcomed as observers and contributors to the program. Caregivers need to listen to parents, seek to understand their goals and preferences for their children, and respect cultural and family differences. Parents should feel welcomed when they enter the classroom. Parents should be encouraged to observe, eat lunch with their child and/or volunteer to help in the classroom. On Handout 5, take a look at the excerpt from the NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct section on responsibilities to families.
