Children's Home Society of Florida - Early Head Start

Early Head Start:
During these important developmental years, your child is experiencing the world for the very first time – and this can shape much of his or her future. Early Head Start can help you guide your child’s early years as you lay the foundation for your child to be ready to enter Pre-K.

This is a comprehensive program designed to meet the needs of low income families of children from birth to age three and pregnant women. Early Head Start is aimed at enhancing the development of infant and toddlers while strengthening families.

The Early Head Start Home Based Program enhances children’s social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development, assists pregnant women prenatal and post care, supports parents’ efforts to fulfill their parental roles, and assists parents in moving toward self-sufficiency. Our program services include fathers and primary caregivers.
