For Parents

Partnering with parents is a vital component of our program at the Eleanor Whitmore Early Childhood Center. Interaction between parents and teachers is encouraged, and conferences are scheduled twice annually to allow parents to learn about specific milestones their children have achieved and to identify areas that are developing. Working together as a team, we can provide consistent, nurturing, developmentally appropriate care for our children.
