A school readiness program for children 18-48 months old.

The ParentChild+ Program will help your family in your role as your child's first and most important teacher. Our Home Visitors show you fun ways to help your child learn at home with free books and toys!

We envision a world where every child enters school ready to succeed because every parent has the knowledge, skills, and resources to build school readiness where it starts: the home. Click to view or print our brochure.

  • Visits are 30 minutes long twice a week and can be scheduled at your convenience, day or early evening.
  • You'll learn creative ways to read and play with your child and become actively involved in your child's education.
