Early childhood development encompasses cognitive, emotional, social and physical changes that occur as a child matures. Development in the early years is the most intensive and rapid because children learn faster in this period than in any other stage of their life. Moreover, early experiences shape how a child develops fundamental skills that will impact their future. Early childhood education plays a vital role in supporting young children with developmental skills. As a graduate of an NLU early childhood program or recipient of an endorsement, you’ll be equipped with the skill set essential for a career in early childhood.
