Parents as Teachers

Motor Skills

When babies are born, they start learning how to control their bodies. As they grow into toddlers, it's important for you to give them chances to move around and use their big and small muscles. We partner with you to find fun things to do with your child that gets them moving their body.
 

Language Skills

You are key to your child's speech development so it's important for you to talk to your kids often! Ask them questions, listen to what they have to say, and read to them. All of these things can help your child get better at using language.

Thinking Skills

Playing is a great way for your child to learn important skills that they will use later on in school and life. We partner with you to figure out what your child is interested in and then come up with fun things you can do together that encourages them to get better at thinking and solving problems.

Social Skills

From the time they are born, children need to know that they are loved and safe. We partner with you to help them feel good about themselves and to be kind and respectful to others.

Any family that is expecting a child or has a child under the age of 3 years can participate.
