Tru-Mah-Col Philosophy

Caregivers are the key element entrusted with providing quality experiences and environments for young children.

We believe that caregivers:

• Possess a desire to work with children yet possess a variety of levels of experience and education in working with children.
• Strive to do a good job.
• Have a basic need to be acknowledged for their effort.
• Desire to be viewed as professionals and should be adequately compensated for their expertise.
• Have a responsibility to gain knowledge of early childhood development and practices as articulated by NAEYC.
• Should be life-long learners of appropriate early childhood practices.
