Reaching
Out for Quality is
a new project of Child Care Resources that features personal Home
Visits with a trained Provider Educator. The Provider Educator
brings to the provider’s home: Ideas, information, and activities for
the children, the caregiver and the parent!
to the community and to the regional Child Care Resources network
are offered.
Group trainings
are available to connect your provider with other providers in the
community. Topics of mutual interest can be discussed.
The Caregiver Program offers
practical and developmentally appropriate ideas to help caregivers
create a fun and stimulating environment for the children to explore.
Through a wide variety of Play
and Literacy based activities children will benefit from the
program’s emphasis on helping them to develop their motor skills,
their language skills, their thinking skills, and their social skills.
