Child Development

The babies and young kids who stay at Parisi House receive intensive treatment through our child development program. Many of the children who come to us have already experienced extreme trauma, and some were born with drugs in their system. They may face developmental delays and behavioral issues. Our program is designed to get kids the help they need, often working with partners like FIRST 5, Kidango and Rebekah Children’s Services, and strengthen the bond between mother and child.

While moms attend classes, our highly trained child development staff provide important learning opportunities for kids through structured activities as well as free play time. Moms join their kids on Wednesday mornings for special bonding time, and every Friday moms and kids participate in a fun activity that brings them closer together.
