Honoring Race and Diversity in Reflective Supervision: Guiding Principles to Enhance Relationships
Wilson, Karol; Barron, Carla C.
ZERO TO THREE, v42 n4 p14-20 2022
Reflective supervision is best practice within the infant and early childhood field. Reflective supervisors and supervisees work together to develop a shared space within which both can express their emotional response to work with very young children, caregivers, and families. Supporting professionals using reflective supervision requires a trusted, nurturing, and sensitive relationship that includes opportunities to reflect on racial and cultural differences, biases, values, and judgments. Holding in mind diversity, equity, and inclusion practices is critical within reflective supervision. This article explores four guiding principles of diversity-informed reflective supervision that when put into practice can support ongoing dialogue and embrace and honor diverse perspectives among professionals, caregivers, and families.
