Preschool teachers are the first educators to shape a child’s earliest learning experiences, laying the foundation for their academic, emotional, and social development. Despite the importance of their role in shaping a child’s lifelong learning trajectory, preschool teaching as a profession remains undervalued and frequently overlooked—especially when it comes to understanding how preschool teachers themselves grow and improve over time. Moreover, while other education levels benefit from established frameworks for teacher development, early childhood educators are frequently excluded from such discourse, both academically and institutionally.
