About this Event

Join us for an enlightening evening at Meredith College with Dr. Dan Wuori, early childhood education expert, advocate, and author of The Daycare Myth: What We Get Wrong About Early Care and Education (and What We Should Do About It). Dr. Wuori will challenge conventional perspectives on daycare and early education, exploring how these misconceptions affect children, caregivers, and communities.

In this engaging talk, Dr. Wuori will share thought-provoking insights on:

  • Why learning begins before birth and how early years shape lifelong development.
  • The critical role of nurturing relationships in driving brain development.
  • The need to reimagine early childhood systems to prioritize quality, engagement, and equity.

Dr. Wuori’s expertise blends research, policy advocacy, and his signature relatable style, as seen on his popular social media channels.
