Description: Board members of the Early Childhood Educators of British Columbia (ECEBC) developed and disseminated a survey to early childhood educators throughout the province in 2008. The purpose of the survey was centered on gathering current and relevant information, specifically regarding wages and working conditions, and general information regarding philosophical approaches in providing care and early learning to young children and their families. The responses illustrated the commitment and desire of early childhood educators to continue to work towards increasing awareness and recognition of their profession. The responses reflected educators’ dedication to and acknowledgment of the importance of their work and the care of young children. Further, the responses clearly indicate that Early Childhood Educators feel undervalued and that longevity in the field is significantly impacted by low wages and lack of employment benefits.
