Good upbringing instilled in a child's heart is a solid foundation for their future path in life. Children are the most valuable wealth of the family and society. Ensuring their happy childhood and raising a healthy, broad-minded generation is one of the important tasks. In Turkmenistan, wide opportunities are created for the younger generation to grow up educated, well-mannered, hardworking, and patriotic. In a child's upbringing, along with the role of the family, the share of educators working in preschool institutions is also great. After all, a child's first knowledge and concepts, as well as initial behavioral habits, are formed precisely during this period. Every word, movement of the educator, and attitude towards the child exert an influence on their worldview. One of the specialists who performs this responsible work with love and dedication is Leýli Şirowa, an educator at kindergarten-nursery No. 24 in the Kerki etrap. Having become the winner of the velayat stage of the "Educator of the Year — 2026" competition, she demonstrated her diligence and mastery in her profession. For Leýli Şirowa, being an educator is not just a profession, but a great responsibility aimed at instilling kindness, good manners, love, and a passion for knowledge in the hearts of little ones. Paying attention to each child's individual character, interests, and abilities, she strives to encourage them to think creatively. Working with children requires patience, high responsibility, and boundless affection. An educator's love for their profession is one of the main conditions that increase the effectiveness of this work. Thanks to the efforts of such specialists, the childhood world of the little ones becomes even brighter. The soundness of a child's upbringing, education, and manners is the firm laying of the foundation of the future. Therefore, every good example, piece of advice, and affectionate word given to little ones leaves an indelible mark on their path in life.
