"How you are is as important as what you do." This Women's History Month we honor Dr. Jeree H. Pawl, a Clinical Professor for the Department of Psychiatry at the University of California at San Francisco, who was a pioneer in early childhood mental health and a fierce advocate for caregivers, as well as a founding board member of Zero to Three. Her work emphasized The Platinum Rule—treating parents with the same empathy and respect we want them to show their children. At Power of Two, we embody this approach, recognizing that when caregivers feel supported, they can create the safe, nurturing environments children need to thrive.?
关于我们
The first 1000 days of a child’s life are full of enormous opportunities. It is a time of rapid change and monumental growth. It is also a time where short-term, strategic support of families can have an everlasting impact on the lives of children, their health, and their communities. Our mission at Power of Two is to nurture the inherent potential in every child and family — equipping them with the tools to transform their own lives and strengthen their communities. Power of Two envisions an equitable society with strong communities where families thrive and children are healthy, safe, and able to reach their full potential.

We love seeing the magic of early brain development in action! Watching this sweet father-son interaction reminds us how powerful those early conversations are. Talk to your little ones—every word counts! #earlychildhood #buildingbonds
Want to see a baby make 60 million neural connections? ?? Look no further than this fantastic video. As they bide a little time in the car, our hero and his dad engage in this lovely “serve and return” interaction. And it’s hard to tell which of them is loving it more. If you’re a new parent or grandparent, know that these face-to-face, back-and-forth interactions are one of the very best ways to light up your baby’s developing brain. At birth your baby’s brain is home to up to 100 billion neural (nerve) cells - but depends heavily on early experiences and interactions to help create the connections between them that will go on to undergird language and more sophisticated forms of cognition. During the earliest months of life researchers estimate that these neural connections occur at a rate of one million per second - meaning that 60 million or more occur over the course of this beautiful one minute conversation. Talk, talk, talk to your baby. The payoff will be huge. This loving father and son duo was shared to TT by smileybunch. #earlychildhood #earlyyears #eyfs #parenting
