Welcome Early Childhood
Special Educators!
Early childhood special educators provide direct services to the child, collaborate with the family, and work as a member
of a team with other professionals who provide services to the child or family. Infants and their families receive service in
centers, in homes, or in a combination of the two. Most pre-school age children receive services in a preschool setting at a
school or in a community center program.
Early childhood special educators work with infants who are slow in developing or who have a
known disability. Together with the parents they provide a program of activities that encourage the growth of the child's
skills. Activities suited to each child's special needs are developed. Parents are fully included in the planning and
implementation of the program. (Description
