An overview of the demographic and theoretical context within which early childhood programs operate, and a look at the core competencies that make them work. Based on the premise that high-quality programs for young children are an essential support for families--a part of the family ecosystem--this resource demonstrates how managers of programs for young children must understand the value of family, as well as the relationships between family, program, and community. Part I provides an overview of the demographic and theoretical context within which child development programs operate. Part II focuses on 12 core competencies, derived from a review of currently literature in the field and aligned with NAEYC accreditation criteria, including: personal and professional self-awareness; organizational, fiscal, and personnel management; human relations; facilities management; health and safety; food service; educational programming; family support; marketing and public relations; assessment and evaluation.
