You can't teach a child from where you wish they were. You have to start from where they actually are emotionally, developmentally, and relationally. That's not lowering the bar. That's finding the door.

The lack of access to quality early learning and care affects babies during their most critical period of development. As families are priced out and providers shut their doors, parents are forced to choose between caregiving and responsibilities like work or school. Child care is the work that helps everyone else work.
