Time Well Spent: A Professional and Personal Journey


When I first started Walden University I didn’t know what to expect but I knew in order to be in this diverse field I must continue my education and learn more and how to apply what I have learned in my profession as an early childhood educator. In this field I learned that it takes the community, parents, educators, professions, and other professionals work together in order to come up with the best resources, educational tools, health, and materials to help children and families to becoming self sufficient and school readiness. Throughout this journey I also have learned in order to deal with bias issues you have to look within and deal with any issues that you may have and try not to let your views and the way you think and feel rub off on the children. Children minds are like a sponge they are absorbing everything that is being said, taught and absorbed all around them. As I continue my personal journey I will do my best to try to create an atmosphere that is bias free, warm, welcoming, and educational.  One of my long term goals is to become an educational specialist for Head start.

I would like to thank everyone for their great input and experiences that you have shared throughout this journey. I only have one message remember why you chose this s field and apply it daily even though sometimes it seems like we are not making a difference in children and families lives. In the end the best reward is seeing the children grow up and become whatever they want. Encourage their dreams never say never.
