Toni Cacciatore - April 16, 2008
Excellent. Easy to navigate with clips that illustrated the concepts . . . the information supported our current practices as well as offering new insights.
Cathy Pope, School NurseChildcare Health Consultant, Merced County Office of Education - April 16, 2008

"Gives any early intervention service provider a clearer understanding of other disciplines, who to access for supporting the family and child, and what services might be provided . . . a unique resource."

Carole Shugard, Early Start Teacher, San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools - April 16, 2008

"Very valuable insights into best practices . . . I continue to refer back to the video clips when setting up or reviewing my practice with my students. When I share the pictures and video clips with parents, they connect to the experience of another parent, and become more willing to try various activities and strategies."

Kim Barnes, San Diego County Office of Education, North County Regional Education Center, HOPE Infant Family Support Program - April 16, 2008

"I have reviewed this material multiple times throughout the years since taking the course as a way to reflect on my approach, style, and knowledge, so I can provide the best support possible for families."

Sharon Kilpatrick, Early Start Teacher, San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools - April 16, 2008

"The video clips greatly enhanced the materials. Having the opportunity to gain information from such a wide range of professionals provided a learning experience that might not have been possible in a traditional classroom setting."
