Where Great Futures Begin

UCLA Early Care and Education (ECE) professionals foster the development of children and create a strong foundation for lifelong learning by providing developmentally appropriate education and quality care, support for families and resources for the community. Early Care and Education (ECE) operates an award-winning, accredited, nationally recognized program that is high

ly effective in supporting the recruitment and retention of faculty, students and staff who are key to the mission of the University. Our name portrays the scope of our services to campus families, giving emphasis to the importance of early education experiences in light of knowledge gained from current brain development research. Special Features

Accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). Recognized by High Scope Educational Research Foundation and NAEYC as an exemplary campus-based early childhood program. Respects parents as the first and most important caregivers who partner with early childhood teachers in nurturing children. Provides a daily schedule that balances active and quiet times, individual interactions with small and large group participation, child-initiated and teacher-directed activities. Implements a developmentally appropriate curriculum based on the view that children learn best when they are actively exploring a carefully constructed environment in the company of loving, professionally prepared teachers. Offers "Pathways to Science," a specialized, staff-developed curriculum that fosters children’s critical thinking. Mindful Awareness Practices: Attention, Balance and Compassion can be seen as "the new ABC's." Practicing these skills is part of the process of becoming more attentive and aware. ECE works with UCLA's Mindful Awareness Research Center (MARC) Inner Kids. See more information at http://www.innerkids.org or www.marc.ucla.edu
