It’s Time to Think Babies™ NC
- Let’s #ThinkBabiesNC and focus on what all children and families in NC need to thrive: healthy beginnings, supported families, and access to high-quality early care and learning experiences.
- When we support children in their earliest years, we prepare our babies to grow, learn and succeed—and our communities, workforce and economy become stronger and more productive. #ThinkBabiesNC
- Brains are built, not born. During the first years of life, babies’ experiences are built into their bodies — shaping brain development and building the foundation for all future learning, behavior and health. #ThinkBabiesNC
- Opportunities to thrive are not shared equally by all babies and families. Policies must be effective and equitable to make sure every baby has what they need to succeed. #ThinkBabiesNC
- In the first few years #babies brains form more than 1 million new neural connections every second. That’s a whole lot of brainpower! #ThinkBabiesNC
- All parents are stretched in the earliest months and years of their child’s life. Our state and our communities all have a role to play in supporting parents with support they may need at this especially critical time. #ThinkBabiesNC
- A baby’s beginning builds the foundation for their future and the future of our state. North Carolina’s youngest citizens are counting on all of us to #ThinkBabiesNC and make their potential our priority.
- For hundreds of thousands of young children in NC, the #COVID19 crisis is occurring during a time when their rapid brain development means they are particularly affected by the rising stress of the adults caring for them. #ThinkBabiesNC
- The decisions policymakers make today will help determine if NC’s #babies have a strong foundation for future success, or whether that future will be undermined by the effects of #COVID19. #ThinkBabiesNC
