How to do it right with Linda Meredith

This week, after what seemed a long hiatus, Keri and Tim talk to Linda Meredith.

Catching up with Kristina Ellis

This week Keri and Tim chat with our old friend Kristina Ellis. Kristina is fortunate enough to have seen much of Early Childhood Education from different angles. First working for a highly regarded Head Start grantee in Oklahoma, then a stint with NSHA where she helped launched the Academy, and most recently with a childcare program where she spends her day’s chasing grants. She is always delightful.
