Professional Development for Early Childhood

Early Childhood Centers are places where children begin to develop who they are in relation to others; they are places where whole families grow, learn and build community; they start a trajectory for the child and the family that takes them into new areas of physical, cognitive, social and emotional development and connection.

BJE works with 48 Jewish Early Childhood Centers and countless Parent & Me programs across greater Los Angeles. BJE’s ever-evolving services include:

Bebe Feuerstein ECC Conference   Early Childhood Directors' Network  ECE Mentor Teacher Program

Simha and Sara Lainer Distinguished Educator Awards for Early Childhood Educators

Smotrich Family Foundation's "What If" Grants

Early Childhood Director’s Network provides directors with a place to share resources, receive professional support from peers and engage in high-level professional development specifically designed for those running Jewish Early Childhood Centers.
