- Abstract
Relationships are the foundation of the early childhood professional's work with infants and young children in their care. Caregiver behavior deeply influences a child's capacity to cope with stress. Supporting caregivers emotionally allows them to be more regulated and available to infants, children, and families. The stress of COVID-19 has undoubtedly impacted the psychological health of many, most notably, the early childhood education (ECE) workforce who are disproportionately women of color. This article will focus on facilitated groups for Spanish-speaking providers and will outline socioculturally attuned support, provided to underserved early childhood professionals in private ECE establishments.
