Washington Early Achievers

Early Achievers improves on children outcomes in licensed facilities. Their goal is to rate childcare centers based on an improvement system, which supports our programs to deliver high-quality care through training and coaching.  It ensures children’s experience is a learning opportunity.  Our coach encourages fulfilling professional development, child health & safety, and the child's education.  

Early Achievers forms a foundation that supports our families to build a relationship.  We locate community resources, provide parent education, parent conferences, and feedback to assist improvement.  We would like to strengthen our families by empowering them through parent participation and providing resources based on their essential needs.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE?

Enrolled families of infants and toddlers at College For Kids who are receiving child care subsidies.

Early Head Start programs support the mental, social, and emotional development of children from birth to age 5. The program promotes the school readiness of young children from low-income families through local programs.  
Our enrolled parents benefit from the resources and products the center provides for them.  We support our parents by providing wipes, diapers, diaper cream, formula, and educational opportunities for each child enrolled.

In addition to educational services, our program provides children and their families with health, nutrition, social, and other services. Early Head Start services are responsive to each child and family's ethnic, cultural, and linguistic heritage. EARLY Head Start encourages the role of parents as their child's first and most important teachers. Programs build relationships with families that support positive parent-child relationships, family well-being, and connections to peers and community.
