Marie Hilton
Marie Hilton born Marie Case (1821 – 1896) was a British pioneer of child care. She created "Mrs's Hilton's Creche, Infirmary and Orphan's Home" in London to enable working-class mothers to work jobs outside of the home. Throughout her career, over thirty thousand children had been looked after at Marie’s establishments. Early Life Hilton had a difficult start in life. Her grandmother took her in when her parents failed to care for her. Her Anglican grandmother objected to her attending another denomination's church service, but Hilton did not follow her instruction. When she was in London she went to a Congregational Church service in Westminster. She not only joined the church aged twenty but she became an active member helping with their Sunday School and temperance work. She moved to Nottinghamshire and in 1843 to Brighton where she attended services organised by the Society of Friends. She married a Quaker, John Hilton, and they had five children. They moved to London ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Child Care In The United Kingdom
Child care in the United Kingdom is supported by a combination of rights at work, public sector provision and private companies. Child care is usually undertaken by the parents, and more often the mother who takes leave from employment. Early childhood education in a crèche or nursery is not freely available from the public sector, while fee-paying pre-schools are. History The first pre-school institution was opened in 1816 by Robert Owen in New Lanark, Scotland. The Hungarian countess Theresa Brunszvik followed in 1828. In 1837, Friedrich Fröbel opened one in Germany, coining the term "kindergarten". Marie Hilton started a creche for the children of working mothers in a house in London's Stepney Causeway on 22 February 1871. By 1889 it was Mrs's Hilton's Creche, Infirmary and Orphan's Home and it occupied three houses. In 1896 Hilton died when there was 120 children in the creche. Leave from work Since the United Kingdom is a mixed economy, the government provides free heal ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Congregational Church
Congregationalism (also Congregational Churches or Congregationalist Churches) is a Reformed Christian (Calvinist) tradition of Protestant Christianity in which churches practice congregational government. Each congregation independently and autonomously runs its own affairs. These principles are enshrined in the Cambridge Platform (1648) and the Savoy Declaration (1658), Congregationalist confessions of faith. The Congregationalist Churches are a continuity of the theological tradition upheld by the Puritans. Their genesis was through the work of Congregationalist divines Robert Browne, Henry Barrowe, and John Greenwood. In the United Kingdom, the Puritan Reformation of the Church of England laid the foundation for such churches. In England, early Congregationalists were called '' Separatists'' or '' Independents'' to distinguish them from the similarly Calvinistic Presbyterians, whose churches embraced a polity based on the governance of elders; this commitment ...

Ratcliff
Ratcliff or Ratcliffe is a locality in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. It lies on the north bank of the River Thames between Limehouse (to the east), and Shadwell (to the west). The place name is no longer commonly used. History Etymology and origin The name ''Ratcliffe'' derives from the small sandstone cliff that stood above the surrounding marshes, it had a red appearance, hence ''Red-cliffe''. Ratcliff was historically part of the Manor and Ancient Parish of Stepney. The place name Stepney evolved from ''Stybbanhyð'', first recorded around 1000 AD. ''Stybbanhyð'' probably translates into modern English as "Stybba's hithe (landing place)", with Stybba the individual who owned the Manor (estate). The hithe itself is thought to have been at Ratcliff, just under south of St Dunstan's Church. Civil and ecclesiastical administration The hamlet was divided between the parishes of Limehouse and Stepney until 1866, when it was constituted a separate civil parish ...

Firmin Marbeau
Jean Firmin Marbeau (1798 – October 10, 1875) was a French philanthropist who pioneered the ''crèche'' movement, a forerunner of modern day care. Marbeau was born in Brive-la-Gaillarde, and was by profession a lawyer in Paris. He is best known for founding the first ''crèche'', which opened in Paris on November 14, 1844. The ''crèche'' provided child care to enable working-class mothers to work jobs outside of the home, and spawned a Crèche Movement that led to a number of similar establishments being opened in France; the concept was also influential on the development of day care in North America. Marbeau wrote a number of books promoting the concept, and died in Saint-Cloud in 1875.

Quakers
Quakers are people who belong to the Religious Society of Friends, a historically Protestantism, Protestant Christian set of Christian denomination, denominations. Members refer to each other as Friends after in the Bible, and originally, others referred to them as Quakers because the founder of the movement, George Fox, told a judge to "quake before the authority of God". The Friends are generally united by a belief in each human's ability to be guided by the inward light to "make the witness of God" known to everyone. Quakers have traditionally professed a priesthood of all believers inspired by the First Epistle of Peter. They include those with Evangelical Friends Church International, evangelical, Holiness movement, holiness, liberal, and Conservative Friends, traditional Quaker understandings of Christianity, as well as Nontheist Quakers. To differing extents, the Friends avoid creeds and hierarchical structures. In 2017, there were an estimated 377,557 adult Quakers ...
