PARENT EDUCATION

We are committed to helping parents with the development of their children. Being a trusted resource is our goal in our ever-changing world of information.

Presentations, book clubs, and coffee events help CV parents learn more about what we do and how they can support their children’s growth and development at home. Parent education allows parents to meet other parents and form friendships and connections in the process.
