Kindergarten teacher qualification certificate and Putonghua certificate, these two certificates are the threshold for entering kindergartens or early education centers. An early education teacher refers to a worker who educates babies aged 0 to 6. Domestic early education teachers are mainly engaged in early childhood education and generally work in early education institutions.
Different from kindergarten teachers, early education not only educates children, but also educates parents, especially mothers. Early education can be divided into preschool teachers, parent-child teachers, teachers who feel integrated, Montessori teachers, Orff music teachers and home-based early education.
As a professional education, early education involves infant physiology, psychology, pedagogy, nutrition, brain science, female psychology, thinking science, business science, learning science, family education and other disciplines, which is beyond the understanding and mastery of ordinary parents. So the early teachers were quite professional.
