The book “Day To Day The Relationship Way” explains how loving, consistent relationships foster learning, with a focus on emotional and social development as the foundation for learning. Young children rely on their early educators as well as their families for protection, affection, and emotional connections they need to thrive. After reading this book and completing the eCourse, educators will learn how, through loving, consistent relationships, they can best support infant and toddler development in all domains. Educators will learn practical ways to create a relationship-based program and how to provide engaging learning experiences for infants and toddlers within the context of meaningful relationships. This book will help teachers identify strategies to use that meet the children’s physical, emotional, social, and cognitive needs allowing children to thrive, have optimal brain development, a healthy sense of self, and fully engage in learning experiences.
