Each year, Early Learning NH recognizes three outstanding early childhood professionals working in the child care sector in New Hampshire with the annual Excellence in Child Care Awards. These distinguished individuals represent the best in the field of early childhood education, are committed to helping every child in their charge reach their full potential, and receive their award for their outstanding dedication and professionalism.
A reception for the honorees is hosted every year by the Governor of the State of New Hampshire. The annual reception is a great event, one in which the early education profession is elevated to the level of honor and respect it deserves. Joining the Governor to honor the three recipients are prominent business leaders, current Commissioners of the Department of Health and Human Services, the Department of Employment Security and the Department of Education, and many other state leaders. The men and women who speak at the reception to honor the year's recipients are the people in key positions in the state who have demonstrated high regard for the important work of early childhood professionals throughout the previous year. These leaders understand that when we give New Hampshire's youngest citizens what they need to thrive, develop and prepare for the future, we give our state the best possible chance to thrive in the future. They know that capable children are the bedrock of a prosperous and sustainable Granite State. Early Learning NH is grateful to them.
