Hello class,
Zero to Three organization focuses on babies from birth to age 3. They want for all babies and toddlers to have a strong start in life because they understand that healthy connections helps build babies brains, so they help equip teachers and families by providing many resources for all. For the families, Zero to Three supports them with giving them resources with how to connect with their baby positively and deeper. Not only will this help families but also teachers as myself to be able to better understand a child and see which teaching methods would work best for each child. Zero to Three is a resource that a teacher can always use and for families as well. They cover every topic a parent may have questions about. They have over thousands of useful resources for parents to read and apply with their own baby. From mental health issues in young children and how that might look like, activities to bond with baby from birth, and more. They also provide these resources in Spanish for Spanish speaking families. Zero to Three does offer training opportunities. They offer 6 at the moment and they range from $99 to $1299 depending on the training you choose. I think Zero to Three is a powerful resource for teachers and families to use because it has so much insight in what's happening to the baby's brain development when they are being loved and cared for. This resource is one that truly cares for the well being of every baby and supports the family.
