About the Author

Hello, My Name is Kristal O'Neal and I am an early childhood practitioner specializing in the social, emotional, cognitive and physical development of young children.  I recieved my certification in Early Childhood Education at Cardean University and obtained  my Associate's Degree in Child Development from Kaplan University. I have over 15 years of early childhood experience, with 8 of those years in a classroom setting. I was also a Health and Safety Cooridinator at a well established childcare corporation. I founded the "The Early Childhood Cheat Sheet" blog to provide parents and caregivers with developmentally appropriate information for young children. As a teacher and a mother of seven (including a child with ADHD and a set of twins), I  understand firsthand the joys and anxities that parenthood brings. I am here to work with you and family to provide you with answers to questions you may have involving your little ones.
