The Desired Results Developmental Profile for
Infants and Toddlers:
• California Department of Education: Child Development Division
• A naturalistic observational assessment tool
• An assessment tool that applies to children from birth up to 36 months of age
• An assessment tool that tracks children’s development & learning across developmental sequences
Naturalistic Observation:
• Focuses on child’s typical behavior in different situations or settings over a period of time
• Reflects typical interactions that the infant care teacher has with the child
• Does not interfere with the child’s interests and routines
Observation Strategies
• Become familiar with developmentally based descriptions of behavior
• Observe the child during her or his natural daily routine, in different situations, and at different times during the day
• Observe the child over time, not just one day
Observation Strategies (continued)
• Focus on exactly what the child does, without evaluating the behavior
• Record observations as soon as possible—but avoid letting the recording or documentation method interfere with being responsive to children
Documentation Methods
Anecdotal Records:
• Post-It Notes
• Mailing Labels
• Recipe Cards
• Notebooks
Documentation Methods
• Portfolios
• Audio Tapes
• Photographs
• Videos
• Checklists

Structure of Desired Results and Rating
• The Infant/Toddler DRDP consists of nine developmental themes
• The caregiver uses developmentally based descriptions to assess behavior
• The caregiver determines which behavior is the child’s level of MASTERY
• The caregiver considers if the child is showing signs that he/she is EMERGING to the next developmental level
What is MASTERY?
• The typical way a child behaves or responds
• Behaviors that are done easily and confidently
• The way a child most often behaves or responds in different situations at different times
What is EMERGING?
• When EMERGING to the next level, the child engages in the higher level behavior tentatively, with a lot of effort, and sometimes awkwardly.
• Behaviors or responses that are considered EMERGING appear inconsistently, but suggest that the child will soon master the next level.
Activity #2: Rating Written
Scenario1. Read Scenario 2: Sam and Sally
2. Write down what behaviors you ‘observed’ in this scenario
3. Review the Developmental Levels of the Memory Theme
4. Decide Level of ‘MASTERY’
5. Consider ‘EMERGING’

Memory Theme
Step 4: What is Sam’s
Developmental Level of
MASTERY on the
Memory Theme? Why?
Step 5: Is Sam
EMERGING to the next
Developmental Level?
Activity #3: Rating Video Clips
• Before watching video clip: Review Levels of Development for Theme
• 1ST Time: Watch the video. Take
notes if you’d like.
• 2nd Time: Decide the child’s highest developmental level of
MASTERY. Think about what you observed
that led you to select this level.
• Afterwards, consider the option of EMERGING
