Nurturing Children’s Social and Emotional Learning and Well-Being  
Children’s relationships and experiences during their formative years have a far-reaching impact, and early childhood educators play a critical role in fostering the social and emotional competence children need to process and learn from these interactions.  Explore how teachers can use the opportunities embedded in their curriculum, practices, and routines to support positive, healthy behaviors in children from birth through age 8.

- Mitigate the effects of trauma in children’s lives
