An educator is a professional who works in early childhood education and care. The duties and responsibilities of an educator can vary in different settings, including kindergartens, preschools, after-school centres and other educational institutions. Here are the main duties of an educator:
- Design educational programmes: Educators develop and plan educational and play opportunities that are tailored to children’s needs and interests. This includes creative, artistic, motor and language activities.
- Individual support: They recognise the individual strengths and weaknesses of the children and support their personal development, social skills and learning processes.
- Promoting social interaction: Educators promote social interaction among children by organising group games and joint activities to teach teamwork, empathy and conflict resolution.
- Observation and documentation: They observe the children’s development, document progress and prepare development reports to evaluate education and support.
- Parent work: Educators work closely with parents, inform them about the development of their children and advise them on educational issues. Parents’ evenings and discussions are part of this task.
- Safety and hygiene measures: They are responsible for the safety and well-being of the children, including adherence to hygiene standards and supervision during play.
- Integration of children with special needs: Educators support children with special needs and work to promote inclusion to provide equal developmental opportunities for all children.
- Teamwork: They work in a team with other educators, specialists and therapists to ensure holistic care and support for the children.
- Education and imparting values: Educators impart values, norms and cultural content and promote a respectful and tolerant attitude towards others.
- Further training and reflection: They take part in further training and courses to expand their expertise and regularly reflect on their work in order to improve the quality of care and education.
Overall, an educator plays a crucial role in early childhood development by creating a safe and nurturing environment in which children can learn, play and develop social skills.
