    1. Hi Alice, What a nice page you have. I see that you are employed with head start as well. So am I. From reading discussions and blogs, I see that there are many in this class who are employed by head start. I think this is great, we can learn so much from each other. Thanks for the article on the Professional resources for Parents and educators. It really is informative as an educator and as a parent.

    2. Hello Alice,
      I can appreciate your article on "Promoting Professional and High Quality Early Childhood and School Age Programs" as I understand that this is a must in childcare facilities, if they are to stay within compliance with Social Service Standards etc. In addition, "professionalism" and "quality" are essential for child, teacher, parent and management success as these are two very important skills needed to maintain a childcare facility where we are building healthy foundations for everyone involved as it pertains to developing the whole child.
