Which children’s book publisher is best for beginners?

I’m looking for a children’s book publisher for my first manuscript, but I’m confused about what really matters. Which publishers are good for editing support, illustration quality, and fair contracts? What should I check before submitting my story, and how do I avoid unreliable options? Has anyone here worked with a <a href="https://vermontbookpublishers.com/children-book-publishing">children's book publisher</a> and what honest advice would you give to first-time authors?
