2019 has been a whirlwind of a year for us here at HiMama. We wanted to take the time this holiday season to thank all the wonderful guests that have come on our show and our audience for listening in, sharing, and recommending people for us to talk to about early childhood education.
We have ended 2019 with our 180th episode and interviewed 50 people this year. We’ve covered topics like Advocacy, Leadership, Curriculum and Mental Health in early childhood education.
Thanks to you, our show has grown by 60% this year!
We thought that being cozy over the holidays might just be the right time to binge some episodes. So, get into some comfy clothes, make a hot drink, and settle in because we have curated our top 10 episodes for 2019 just for you.
