The following are from NAEYC code of ethics.

I-1.9
To advocate for and ensure that all children, including those with special needs, have access to the support services needed to be successful

This ethic is very important to my professional life because a lot of time special needs children go untouched. The early we can seek help for those children the better chance they have at being successful.

I-2.2
To develop relationships of mutual trust and create partnerships with the families we serve. 

This ethic is very important to my professional life because families is what make us have a career. You should be there for the families on what ever they need.

I-3A.1
To establish and maintain relationships of respect, trust, confidentiality, collaboration and cooperation with co-workers.

This ethic is important to my professional career because your co-workers are the only ones that understand what you are going through professionally. They will be there for you when you need them and you should be there for them when they need you. 


The following are from the DEC code of ethics.

I.1
We shall demonstrate in our behavior and language respect and appreciation for the unique value and human potential of each child.

This ethic is important to my professional career because every child is different. In order to form a bond with every child you need to understand and respect that they are different. 

II.4
We shall support professionals new to the field by mentoring them in the practice of evidence and ethically based services.

This ethic is important to my professional career because I was new at one point, I had co-workers that were there for me. I would like to do the same for the new professionals.

III.6
We shall respect families' rights to choose or refuse early childhood special education or related services.

This ethic is important to my professional career because the parents are the children's first teacher. Even if we do not agree with them not getting the services we have to respect their wishes. They may not be ready to accept that is what the child needs.
