Group meetings are held with other parents, so they may share experiences and discuss topics of interest. The Parents as Teachers program also has a toy and book lending program. The first few years of life are critical in the development process. Essentially, the parents are the child s first teachers, and the child s home is their first classroom. That is the guiding philosophy of the Parents as Teachers program.
Instructors go to the home to ensure that the home is a safe enviroment.
