PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS

For several years, Kids Count of Milford has offered workshops to parents and the staff of the Milford private preschool  programs. Topics have focused on indications from the local preschools and board members on issues such as: Conscious Discipline, Understanding Temperament of Young Children, Understanding the Autism Spectrum, ADHD and how parents can work with their children at home,  Understanding the PPT process, Child Development, Emergent Reading and Writing (full day of preschool and kindergarten staff).

Participants who attend the workshops complete an evaluation form that elicits their perspective and opinions of the workshop and requests suggestions of future workshops. Kids Count combines the results and determines the need of additional professional development at the preschool level.
