How does your child feel about childcare?

Parents, one way to find out what childcare is like is to ask your child! Listen to your child to learn what daycare is like to him.

Start Early to Get Ahead

What does being ready for elementary school really mean? It used to mean starting the first day of school with all the supplies on the list, but now we know so much more about how young children’s brains develop. More and more parents are aware of the positive effects of a high quality early childhood education for their child’s success. This knowledge has also led to extra emphasis on acquiring academic skills. Experts suggest parents take a step back and look for programs with a balanced approach to school readiness.
