Meet the Founder

​​Early Childhood Honors was founded by Dr. Taylor D. Spencer, a former early childhood and elementary teacher who intimately understands the joys and challenges of early education. Today, as a children’s author, singer, content creator, and entrepreneur, she continues to support students, families, and educators through creative media, community events, and the daily work of her ventures, including Taylor Dee Kids TV Media, Right Now Education, and her own Creative Arts Preschool and School Age Center, Wonder Academy. Her journey is rooted in a love for learning and a desire to uplift those who nurture it from the very beginning.
