Please refer to Handout 1, “NAEYC Principles of Child Development.” 
Caring for young children begins with an understanding of child development so that providers can anticipate the needs of infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school-agers up to age eight.  The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) offers the following advice:  “To guide their decisions about practice, all early childhood teachers need to understand the developmental changes that typically occur in the years from birth through age eight and beyond, variations in development that may occur, and how best to support children’s learning and development during these years.”   -NAEYC Position Statement on Developmentally Appropriate Practices (1996)
