This investigation examined the relationship between teachers' credentials and teachers' child-rearing beliefs and preschoolers' social development at Jordan/Amman private preschool settings. The participants were 946 (474 boys and 474 girls) 4 to 5-year-old preschool children attending private schools at the directorate of Amman/Jordan and their teachers (70). An instrument was administrated to the teachers in order to measure the degree to which their credentials and beliefs relate to preschool children's social development. Teachers' credentials and child-rearing beliefs were assessed by using Parental Modernity (PM) Scale for Child-rearing and Educational Beliefs (Schaefer and Edgerton, 1985). Preschool children's social development was assessed using Social Skills Improvement System (Gresham & Elliot, 2008). Pearson Moment Product Correlation and multiple regression were used to analyze existence of possible relationships. The analyses examined differences in teachers' credentials and child-rearing beliefs. The Analyses also examined differences in problem behaviors and social skills of preschoolers whose teachers possess traditional beliefs and had low credentials. The findings suggested that more than half of the preschool teachers (71.43%) had low credentials and (77.14%) had traditional beliefs. There were significant, relationship between teachers' credentials and teachers' child-rearing beliefs. Also the findings suggested that teachers' credentials and beliefs were consistent with preschool children's social development and problem behaviors.
