Early Head Start (EHS) is based on the assertion that all children have explicit needs and can benefit from a comprehensive developmental program. Children benefit when families and educators work together to support young children's development. Yet, research suggests that parents and educators often do not collaborate about children's education, which can have negative impact on school readiness. This project studied EHS programs that have utilized narrative observations, referred to as Journey of Discoveries, to examine collaboration between parents and teachers. The qualitative case study used interview transcripts from three EHS programs. Findings revealed four central themes: (a) connection, (b) partnership, (c) building of relationships, and (d) the value of teacher and parent shared understanding. Findings indicated that Journey of Discoveries creates a pathway of collaboration for EHS teachers and parents by capturing children's learning and development through the sharing of narrative observations.
