Answer 1: A bachelors degree is a four-year degree containing 120 semester credit hours. An associates degree is a two-year degree containing 60 semester credit hours. Someone with an associates degree, then, would need to go to school for two more years, and earn an additional 60 semester credit hours in order to earn a bachelors.
Sadly, though, it might not be quite as easy as all that. If the institution that awards the bachelors degree decides that something is missing from the associates degree, then some additional coursework, too make-up for whatever the associates degree lacks, might be required. Most bachelors programs don't require so much that it will add another year or anything like that; but it's entirely possible that an entire summer session's worth of additional courses may be necessary. With any luck, though, the entirety of the associates degree will count as the entire first two years of the bachelors degree, and so, therefore, an additional two years is all it will take to earn the bachelors.
You can start with either an associates or bachelor's degree. For those who finish the bachelor's level, some go on for a masters and doctorate.
Typically you need a Bachelor's Degree to begin graduate work on a masters or doctoral (PhD).
I have never seen or heard of an associates degree in child psychology. Typically, a professional psychologist requires a minimum of a masters degree, with most meaningful therapeutic ability and research at the doctorate level. You can start at an associates level of course. However, if you plan on being successful in terms of career potential in this field, think higher degrees.I have never seen or heard of an associates degree in child psychology.

Yes, I would start by looking at Capella or DeVry. Kaplan would also have a masters of education degree.
Typically, there is no standard. After finishing a bachelors, and started my masters almost 19 years later. My bachelors is in psychology, and my masters is in organizational management. I do not recommend waiting that long. If you have the opportunity, start you masters as soon as you can. Once you stop going to school, it's very difficult getting back.
It depends on the type of masters degree (specialty), and the curriculum design particular to the institution offering the degree. In other words, a masters in general psychology, or behavioral science may run between 33 and 40 credits, a masters in school psychology may run 70 credits plus.
Going to graduate school for psychology can have its benefits. Having a graduate degree as opposed to a bachelors degree can give you a more advantage start when looking for a psychology career.
The minimum educational requirement is a master's degree. Most psychologists in private practice have a doctorate. If you are serious and have a real passion for the field, then you should start with a bachelor's degree in psychology. However, if for any reason you do not pursue a least the master's degree in psychology, then you will have to ask yourself what you will do with a bachelor's degree in psychology. In other words, a bachelor's degree in psychology does not make you a psychologist.
