Early Head Start
Early Head Start is a free home visitation program for children ages 0-3, and prenatal moms. We work with connecting families to community resources and many more benefits. The main focus is the parent-child relationship. At Early Head Start the expectation is that each parent will
find support in working out a balance between his or her own needs and the child's needs. To do this we share experiences, ideas, and observation times.
Parents sort out what works for them and what doesn't work. Parents can also feel free to share problems because they know it's okay to have problems in the big job of parenting.
To help your baby learn & grow:
-
Play with your baby
-
Smile with your baby
-
Provide age appropiate foods
-
Show your baby how special he or she is by reading, interpreting, and responding to their cues (nonverbal signals). Cues are how a baby lets you know what he or she needs.
-
Provide comfort when they are upset or crying.
-
Set daily routines for your baby
-
Tell your baby you love him or her
