This paper focuses on educational methods for monitoring the development of young children. The theoretical section emphasizes the critical importance of the first three years of a child's life for overall development, underscoring the need for educators and parents to systematically document and record a child's progress. Additionally, the paper describes three primary methods for monitoring child development: observation, recording, and evaluation. Furthermore, the paper addresses the assessment of child well-being and inclusion in early childhood education, along with the assessment methods employed in the monitoring process. In the second, research-oriented part of the paper, an investigation was conducted into the various monitoring methods utilized by educators in their practice. Through the analysis and comparison of their responses, insights were gained into diverse approaches and variations of the methods employed. Four preschool teachers participated in the research. The method of semi-structured interviews was used, and through its analysis, a combination of developmental tracking methods was noticed, with an emphasis on an individualized approach to the child. The diversity of approaches among the teachers was revealed, indicating a richness of utilized methods. The semi-structured interview facilitated a deeper understanding of the approaches and experiences of the teachers, while the participation of the four preschool teachers contributed to a diversity of perspectives.
