I have picked some quotes from major contributors in Early Childhood, these quotes speak volumes!
Edward Zigler ( Head Start founder)
Most mothers and fathers will shop more for a TV set than they will for a child care center for their child.
That is a powerful but truthful quote. As parents we ant the best for our children, but when it comes to childcare we tend to take what we can get. The number one issue is openings, at times some centers have waiting lists that a parent can't wait for. This is the time when they will look at other places trying to get a spot. If we could wait before needing the care and choose like we would while shopping for a new gadget we would be able to find that perfect fit childcare.
Marcy Whitebook ( Childcare employment founder)
“Teacher behavior is one of the major influences on child development”-Marcy Whitebook, Ph.D
This quote makes sense! Children learn through examples, watching their teachers interaction with others and their attitude in the classroom setting will provide social learning skills to the children in their care.
Now I will post some quotes that inspire motivation, passion, and wisdom
Follow your passion, be prepared to work hard and sacrifice, and, above all, don't let anyone limit your dreams. Donovan Bailey
I love your quotes. I agree with you that shopping for quality childcare is very important. I've read so many wonderful quotes in this week's blog!
ReplyDeleteI love the quote by Donovan Bailey. It really speaks volumes to me. We all know that following our passion is never easy. There will be obstacles in our way but we must overcome them and continue to push forward. We must always remember to never allow anyone to detour our destination. That's what this quote means to me._Ischia Peterson
