We work with parents during the critical early years of their children's lives, from prenatal to kindergarten—and the results are powerful!
By understanding what to expect during each stage of a child’s development, parents can easily capture the teachable moment’s in everyday life to enhance their child’s language, intellectual growth, social development and motor skills.
All families can benefit from this kind of support. Parents as Teachers families come from all configurations and all socio-economic levels.
Parents as Teachers is a strong evidence-based home visiting model providing a broad context of parenting education and family support, and building protective factors, especially for those families in vulnerable situations. At its core, Parents as Teachers is relationship-based and parenting-focused. Our approach and curriculum focus on parent-child interaction, development-centered parenting, and family well-being; on strengths, capabilities and skills; and on building protective factors within the family. Parents as Teachers serves a range of families with high needs—not just first time parents, pregnant parents or teen parents—and offers services throughout the continuum from prenatal to kindergarten entry.
