Hi Dear Wonderful and Amazing Families and Friends,

Thank you so very much for taking the time to visit this site!

As an early childhood educator for over thirty years, I treasure the partnerships made with families and colleagues and want to continue celebrating the joy of early childhood.

The main goal of this site is to help parents and families with preschool age children understand their child’s development and know that they are the first and most important teachers in their child’s life.

It is the simple every day interactions that mean the most and provide spontaneous learning opportunities. Please visit the blog posts on this site to find information on early childhood development and teachable moments throughout the day.

Thank you for exploring the learning opportunities that are all around your child and providing them with the foundation needed to be ready for school.

I’m so honored and excited to be “Your Friend in Early Childhood!”

Let’s grow the future together…one child at a time,

“Mrs. S” (AKA Janeel Shulmister)
