- Title

- Authors
Gustafson Dietz, Erika; Darragh Ernst, Johnna
- Abstract
This article highlights two competency-based coaching and mentoring models for the incumbent infant-toddler workforce, designed and implemented at two Illinois institutions of higher education. Each model has been intentionally developed with an antibias and equity lens, focused on cultivating a diverse workforce of practitioners through practice-based supports and external partnerships. The long-term goals of both models are to nurture the development of participants' ability and self-efficacy in the areas of essential infant-toddler competencies, foundational components of relationship-based care, and leadership, thereby benefiting the infant-toddler incumbent workforce and increasing access to high-quality care for children and families.
