Quality Education
Learn About QualityCounts
Entitled ‘How does your child grow’, this initiative is intended as a tool to educate parents on how on choosing quality child care for their children. It is important for parents to know what environment they are putting their child into for 8-10 hours each day. Parents need to make informed decisions.
Q&A About Choosing Quality Child Care
This section offers parents guidance about how to begin looking for child care, where to find financial assistance, and how to encourage learning at home.
Kindergarten Readiness Indicators
Not sure if your child is ready to tackle the world of kindergarten? The Kindergarten Readiness Checklist will give you an idea on what areas your child is doing well in, and where they may need some extra attention. It's a good idea to do the checklist, print it out and then work with your child in the areas they need extra help. In a few weeks, do the checklist again to see how much your child has improved.
