Why Family Engagement Matters
Starting the year with strong family relationships sets the tone for everything that follows. When families feel connected, they become true partners in their child’s growth. Trust and respect open the door to effective communication, ensuring every child’s needs are met. As you learn more about each child and their family, those connections deepen, creating a supportive environment that enhances development and strengthens your center’s community.
