Finding and Keeping Childcare for your child with Special Needs

A good childcare provider is so important. Children with developmental delays and social communication issues may struggle in childcare settings. This training will equip you to find a provider willing to partner with you by learning about your child and the environment that allows them to thrive.  Discover how to focus on similar goals by keeping your childcare provider informed of your child’s life/progress in other settings in which they learn – such as therapy, early childhood centers, or elementary school.  Join Tiffany as she provides tips, strategies and suggestions based on years of experience working with daycares and as an early interventionist and a special education social worker.
