Parents as Teachers
A child's first and more influential teachers are their caregivers and families – those who know them best and want to see them flourish.
The Parents as Teachers program actively partners with families to nurture positive connections so every child can grow to reach their full potential.
It's free, and provides information, support and encouragement specifically for you and your family's needs.
Parents as Teachers is proven to...
- Increase parent knowledge of early childhood development
- Improve early detection of developmental delays and health issues
- Prevent child neglect and abuse
- Increase children’s school readiness and success
"I love this program! It has helped me gain confidence in myself as a parent and I have learned that repeating and consistency is key when working with your child.”
