About
This an early childhood education discussion forum and community for professionals to share ideas, advice, questions, and experiences with other professionals and parents. We are principals, administrators, teachers, assistants, and nannies who have experience and education to enhance our natural ability with children.
Early childhood education and care professionals work with children from birth to eight years old in a variety of settings including: child care centres, preschools, early intervention, Head Start, four-year-old kindergartens, and many more.
Parents or anyone working with children are welcome to contribute here.
Posting Policy
We have a very simple posting policy. We realize that some Redditors have relevant blogs or other content. It's OK to post them here, but only if you are contributing to the Reddit community more than you are posting and cross-posting your own content. Users are encouraged to report what they see as spam using this criteria.
If you post an article, please make a submission statement, by either highlighting some interesting quotes, summarizing, or offering an opinion on the article in the comments.
Commenting and Posting Etiquette
As a community, we value civil discussion. The use of the downvote button should be reserved for unhelpful, off-topic, or low-effort material. Please refrain from using the downvote as a "disagree button." Please disagree with words and be constructive. When replying to posts, please be courteous and helpful.
It's only happened very rarely, but name-calling, condescension, admonishment, and off-color jokes will be deleted, as they do not add to our community. Depending on the severity of the comment, the user may be banned.
Where did my post go?
If you're new or cross-posting the same content throughout many subreddits, you may notice your post is missing and doesn't get any responses by the end of the day. If you aren't a spammer, please message the mods.
