Early Learning

For Children Between 0 and 3 Years Old

Program Description

The Early Learning Program is the first experience families have with PREP and we strive to lay the groundwork for a trusting relationship that will foster many happy years at PREP.

Our weekly parent-child classes for children ages 0-3 provide a warm and welcoming introduction to PREP. Parents value the opportunity to meet and share with other families who are also starting their challenging yet rewarding journey of parenting a child with Down syndrome. Parents will build a network of support as they learn through class time, workshops, and in-class therapeutic consults.

Children enjoy the structured play based activities designed to introduce skills, which will help and support them in their transition to Early Child Service (ECS) and preschool.
