As the saying says quality over quantity is always the better choice and this also reflects within childcare. Quality child care as said in the article is based off the philosophy, values, beliefs, cultural and social idea’s to what one views to be more beneficial than another. I believe that overall quality of early learning and child care should have a sloid foundation in the nine area of safety, hygiene, nutrition, rest, equality, play, developmental growth, relationships, safe and positive environment.

Having the best interest of the child and having a qualified educator

One of my primary goals would be to maintain a group of staff members that I have ensured are reliable, extremely trustworthy and planned on working for me for at least a year or two. I would want to help maintain a constant environment for the zero to two-year-olds. Children who are two-years-old need very different care then one-year-olds or kids who are even younger.

Esmelda daycare promote language through play time she has book that help the toddlers learn the different animal or the ABC the woman would read the book to toddler by pointing to animal or letter and saying what it was she would also promote language by playing with the toys like counting how many Lego blocks there is or by saying the color of the toy right now. Esmelda daycare is not fully completed with all the material the toddlers need they are in process, but still not being a fully completed daycare you can see that the women and the husband take really good care of children when I was there as she was taking to me if the children need something she would stop and put attention to what the children need instead of just keep taking to me and ignored the child.

Daycare is the nurturing of a child by people other than the child's legal guardians during daytime for supervision, care and learning (McClure, n.d., para. 1). However, there is this big question, is daycare good for children?…
