What is Early Childhood Family
Education (ECFE)?
ECFE offers classes, events, playtimes
and other programs designed to give
parents or grandparents information,
ideas and skills to support their
child’s growth and development
from birth up to kindergarten.
Children delight in the variety of
fun learning activities planned for
them in a classroom or brought to
your home by a home visitor.

A Typical ECFE Class
Parent/child interaction
You and your child spend time together enjoying
activities designed to enhance learning. You’ll
leave class with new ideas to continue learning
at home.
Parent education
You’ll meet with other parents and a licensed
parenting educator to share ideas and discuss
topics such as development, temperament
and guidance.
Children’s classroom
While you and other parents participate in
parenting education, children learn and play in
the classroom with early childhood teachers.
Children will enjoy music, art, stories, and large/
small muscle activities as they learn and play.
ECFE is committed to curriculum that reflects the diversity of families.
All ECFE teaching staff have a degree and state license in Parent
Education, Early Childhood Education or both.
