We serve families before they start school!
ParentChild+ Home Visiting, along with the 麻豆果冻传媒 ISD Early Learning Department, delivers responsive and engaging quality early education to AISD鈥檚 youngest learners and their caregivers. 麻豆果冻传媒 ISD ParentChild+ Home Visiting promotes and supports early literacy and fosters positive parent-child interactions. The Early Learning Specialist Home Visitors provide families with creative and fun ways to play and learn with their children to increase caregiver knowledge and their children鈥檚 school readiness. Through these interactions, long-lasting and trusting relationships with families in our communities are established and cultivated.
This program directly addresses the following goal: children and families are informed about and able to access high-quality early learning environments that demonstrate positive developmental outcomes for all children (including children with unique developmental and cultural needs) through competent, responsive, and caring relationships by eliminating the barriers to access many families currently face.
麻豆果冻传媒 ISD partners with ParentChild+, a research-proven home visiting model, to prepare young children for school success by
- increasing language and literacy skills,
- enhancing social-emotional development,
- and strengthening the parent-child relationship.
The overarching goals that guide program implementation are increasing and non-verbal interaction between the caregiver and the child, developing and enhancing positive child behaviors, and promoting and encouraging early literacy skills.
ParentChild+ home visits are delivered through twice-weekly home visits over a two-year period. Each week a gift of a book or educational toy is given to the family, creating a permanent home-library for our youngest learners.
During the home visit, the caregiver, the child, and the home visitor are involved in reading, play activities, quality verbal interaction, and developmentally appropriate activities. The caregiver is left with a curriculum guide sheet with suggestions to extend play, and the invitation to collaborate with the home visitor to design activities for future visits.
