The purpose of this website is to share the importance of supporting and promoting social-emotional health in young children. Teachers supporting the development of social-emotional early in young children can lead to them being productive citizens in society later in life. Part of building a child's social-emotional development is to form trusting relationships, which helps adolescents with social skills. Young children develop and learn in the context of relationships. A trusting and caring teacher-child relationship is essential for children's optimum development (Raikes & Edwards. 2009. NAEYC. 2018).

NAEYC is an educational website for early childhood professionals, that promotes and supports the development of young children from birth to eight years old.

This information supports teachers by providing fact-based information on the effects of building social-emotional development in young children. It also demonstrates the importance of teachers modeling the desired behavior consistently for children to see these relationships to effectively learn the desired behavior. Parenting is also an important factor when considering building trusting relationships. The teacher must build a relationship with the parents as well as the child.

This information aligns with course work because both bring awareness to mental health in adolescents and potential causes and ways to support them. NAEYC information about the development of young children can help to support their social skills as adolescents aligns with Santrock, j. theory about moral development and parent involvement.
