Early Life and Education

The early years of a child’s life are critical for their development. This is when they form attachments with primary caregivers and learn to speak, walk, feed themselves, and more.

But for children to develop and learn optimally, they require active stimulation and interaction with others outside their home environment. This is where early childhood education (ECE) comes in.

In the United States, Early Childhood Education (ECE) refers to a range of programs that offer activities and learning experiences designed to foster cognitive and social development before children enter kindergarten. Some focus on school readiness while others take an “all-inclusive” approach that prioritizes mental and emotional preparedness.

In the wake of the recent pandemic, early childhood educators experienced major setbacks and decreased enrollment in programs. This article examines what those effects have meant for both young children and educators, as well as how this long-running crisis is impacting education more generally.
