As parent educators, we believe the parent is the child's first and most important teacher! Our job is to help partner with you as you prepare your child for school readiness and beyond. We provide personalized home visits approximately once a month, complete yearly developmental screenings, and offer group connections. We love building a relationship with our families and watching your child grow and learn! If you are interested in the program, please click the link below to complete the enrollment form. Upon completion, one of our parent educators will contact you within two business days. We look forward to working with you! *Please note, our program follows the Fulton School District calendar for scheduled holidays and breaks.*
