Quotes from our multimedia presentation
I very quickly got my early childhood degree, started, and absolutely
fell in love with 3 and 4 year
olds. It was the most joyful experience where I
felt that everything in me was being called on to teach. And also, it was very
rewarding as it made me feel whole, it made me feel creative, and so it became
my lifelong work with early childhood education.. - - Louise Derman-Sparks
Early Childhood leaves you ready for optimum life
experiences. A childhood and education content you experience throughout your
life cycle, it opens up the world to you. It gives you the tools you need to
ask questions and investigate things. - - Renatta M. Cooper
