Stacie i have never heard of the babies can't wait website after looking and learning about how parents can help support there children through infancy and sudden infant death syndrome. I think being in the early childhood field helps parents who are dealing with these situations.

Thank you for adding the website about learning disorders. This is something that will be very valuable to me because I would like to know more about learning disorders. I also took a look at the Early Learning and Knowledge Center. They seem to have great information about curriculum and building an environment for early childhood. Thanks for the great websites!
