| Abstract | Early childhood care and Education is an essential that focuses on the care, education and comprehensive growth of children for enhancing the overall growth and development of a child. This study examines the contrasts and continuities between traditional and modern approaches to Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE). It explores how indigenous and community-based practices, with their emphasis on holistic development, socialization, and oral traditions, compare with contemporary, policy-driven models that prioritize school readiness, standardized curricula, and structured pedagogies. The abstract outlines the philosophical underpinnings, pedagogical strategies, and caregiver–teacher roles embedded in each approach, highlighting their implications for children’s cognitive, socio-emotional, and cultural development. Using a qualitative descriptive methodology grounded in literature review and conceptual analysis, the study highlights the complementary and differences between the two paradigms. The findings suggest that while modern ECCE frameworks offer systematic planning, professional standards, and measurable learning outcomes, traditional approaches provide strong cultural grounding, community participation, and contextual relevance. The study concludes that an integrated model, drawing on the strengths of both traditional and modern perspectives, can promote more inclusive, culturally responsive, and developmentally appropriate ECCE practices. |
