Fear. Fear holds us back from doing what is right for the children we serve. Fear of what others will say or think. Through personal stories, research studies, and anecdotes, Kristen will inspire attendees to release fear and to trust their cape as they head back into the world to care for and teach children in the most developmentally appropriate way possible. Attendees will laugh (and maybe even cry) as they see themselves in these stories over and over again. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs lets us know that children can't learn with an absence of relationship with their caregiver (or any other basic unmet need). Learn to apply Maslow to your every day routine with young children. After all, we often forget we are caregivers first when working with young children, teachers second.
