You’ve Got Early Childhood All Wrong | Haneefah Shuaibe-Peters | TEDxUnionCity

Pre-school is more than kindergarten readiness. It's a significant social experience where kids work on their personality and how to work with one another. Haneefah Shuaibe-Peters talks about how pre-school is really pre-society. Haneefah Shuaibe-Peters has worked in the field of early education for over 13 years. She holds a Masters in Early Childhood Education from San Francisco State University and has an extensive background in early childhood training and college instruction. She is currently in pursuit of her Doctorate in Educational Leadership: Early Childhood. Her specialty areas include infant toddler care, pre-school environments, parent education and professional development. As a Bay Area native and mother of two, she is most passionate about providing ECE professionals with practical tools for providing excellent care to young children, while also supporting the families they serve. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
