The Library and all of its materials have been designed by Renée Jordan, a Columbia-educated child development expert and teacher. She has partnered with other experts, such as physios, occupational therapists, and speech and language pathologists to ensure every detail of Earlybird is backed by research.
As a teacher herself she knows how busy your days are, and how much time, care, and attention goes into selecting activities and setting up a developmentally appropriate learning environment. Renée designed all these materials for her own students, and now she is sharing them you to save you time so you can focus on what matters... the kids.
For a limited time, we're offering Earlybird Learning Library members the opportunity to provide their families with discounted access to the Earlybird parenting app.
This innovative app teaches parents what they need to know about child development so they can become your partners in actively supporting their child's learning and growth at home.
Details about the offer and how to share it with your families are available inside the Library.
