Hi, I'm LiYing Yan, a kindergarten principal with over 30 years of experience working with preschoolers and their families.
For decades, I've stood in front of parent-teacher meetings, sharing what I've learned from raising my own kids and guiding hundreds of young learners through their earliest years.
ToddleStart Daily started as a simple collection of those meeting notes — real, actionable, science-backed parenting tips that actually work in busy family life.
Today, this site is dedicated to helping parents navigate the chaotic, wonderful journey of raising preschoolers. No fluff, no jargon, just practical advice from someone who's been there.
Thank you for being here.
