Inspirational People In The Field of Early Childhood

Marian Wright Edelman "I never, ever thought about what I do as a job or a career it was always just a mater of figuring out what needed to be done" 

Edward Zigler PhD "...we need to recapture the hope, to believe once more that it is possible to set the next generation of American children and families on a course toward a better life"

Raymond Hernandez "we are not here to save the world but to make a difference" (The passion for early childhood, video)

  1. Stephanie I also chose The same quote from Raymond Hernandez. That quote makes a lot sense to me because we can not change the world, but we can start making little changes in the communities we work. I will feel happy if I know that at least I was able to make a positive impact in the area that I work. Then if, all of us make a positive change in all the different communities we work we would be much closer to see big positives changes in the early childhood field throughout the world.

  3. Stephanie I liked the quote from Raymond Hernandez as well. We are not the politicians, and we are teachers. What we can do is to help children make a better choice and help them be successful in the classroom. They are the future of the world!
