Cover Story: An educator’s ability to be perceptive to children’s cues in early childhood settings can affect the quality of the relationships built. Although instruments that aim to measure quality relationships currently exist, these instruments are often not exclusive to the educator–child dynamic, fail to be context-sensitive, and do not mitigate scope for observer subjectivity. The Emotional Sensibility Observation Scale (ESOS) was developed to address these gaps, whilst acknowledging that educator–child relationships need to be explored independently to other adult–child relationships. This article proposes that the ESOS may serve as a useful tool for researchers and educators to assess educators’ abilities to accurately read and respond to children’s cues and to measure the quality of relationships built over time. View this paper
