Early Life and Education

Early childhood is an incredibly influential period in a child’s development. What they experience and encounter during this period will shape who they become as adults – including their long-term health, mental clarity and emotional stability.

These years are crucial in developing children’s brain architecture, which will shape their future learning, behavior and health. A strong foundation provides children with the necessary tools to thrive as adults and reach their highest potentials.

Early childhood education (ECE) refers to both formal and informal programs that foster a child’s growth and development from birth until age five. There are various types of ECE available, so it’s essential that you find one that best meets your family’s requirements.
