• Child care staff
• UECH faculty
• UECH student (practicum and student teachers)
• Eclectic curriculum
• Family
Mesosystem
The mesosystem embraces other specific formal and informal social structures that do not themselves contain the developing person, but impinge upon or encompass the immediate settings in which that child is found, and thereby influence, delimit, or even determine what goes on there.

• Family connection• Home• Early childhood special education
• Head start• IEP/IFSP related services
• Faculty liaison
• Auxiliary services
The exosystem refers to situations, settings, and events that have a bearing on the child’s development, but in which the developing child does not actually play a direct role.
