Dr. Preeti Jain
Counsellor Salwan Public School Mayur Vihar
Navtika, a journal on Early Childhood Education (ECE), promotes early childhood development through research-based insights and innovative strategies for educators, counsellors, and caregivers. Discovering Navtika significantly transformed my approach as a counsellor, enriching my practice with its child-centred articles and rigorous research. The case studies and discussions have deepened my understanding of early childhood development, enabling me to design sessions to meet each child’s unique needs. Navtika’s symposiums connect professionals, fostering collaboration and shared learning. Aligned with my values of empathy and social-emotional learning, it has empowered me to nurture compassionate, resilient, and curious minds. One notable story is of a student who struggled with emotional regulation. Using strategies from Navtika, I incorporated social-emotional learning, resulting in a remarkable transformation. The child became more confident and curious. I am grateful for the journal’s insights, which help me create a nurturing environment and empower children to thrive.

The Navtika Journal is a wonderful attempt to expand the knowledge base of early years educators through its publication, which features articles from experts in the domain covering the varied aspects of early childhood care and education. The articles provide a lot of insight on different subjects and cover the latest trends in the sector. I have been one of the contributors to the journal where I wrote about my early years’ peace pedagogy ‘Peaceful Human’. Educators need to stay informed about the latest and the best practices of ECCE and therefore, they should form a habit of reading. I recommend Navtika Journal for all early years educators.
