Coach’s Corner: Supporting Families in Crisis

There are so many layers to working in early childhood education. In addition to educating, caregiving, and running the business side of early childhood education, many programs also serve as a wealth of resources. We should be ready to support the children, their families, and our colleagues in a variety of ways. Many times families will look to their early childhood education programs when they aren’t sure where to turn. Understanding how to support individuals and families who are experiencing a crisis is an invaluable skill for an early childhood educator.
