  1. Hello Nicole!
    Awesome list of resources. My favorites are NAEYC and the Center on Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning. I see you have also listed resources that are specific to your area, I was actually just researching Tucson, Arizona for my niece and nephew to start a head start program there as my sister in law recently moved there. I will share these resources with my sister in law to help us on our search. Thanks!

  2. Hi,
    I think it's great that you chose resources specific to your area. I think that's really helpful for someone who is looking but getting overwhelmed, this is a great way to narrow it down!

  3. Nicole,
    What a fantastic list of resources! Targeting resources to your state is a brilliant idea to help educators and families to obtain rich sources with relevant information.

  4. Hi Nicole,
    Those are great resources you added. The one that yo put called First Things First is very similar to what we have in California called First Five. They also want to encourage talking and reading to your child to help them in their future. Those first five years are so important. This is a great resource to share with parents.
