Learning for Life Program | Burgess Health Center

Early childhood parenting program provided in the home, using Parents as Teachers curriculum. The program works with families one-on-one that have children aged prenatal through age 5, or kindergarten entry.

Beyond the personalized visits with the family, the program also puts on family get together events where the families can socialize with the other families. An example of these events include pumpkin patch day, tie-die a shirt event, visit the zoo day, and make a craft together day.

Another benefit to enrolled families is that they earn Kid’s Korner points that can be used to ‘purchase’ items from our Kid’s Korner store (i.e. diapers, wipes, cabinet locks, car seats, etc.). There are various ways for the families to earn these points, such as personalized visits with our Program Educators and attending family get together events, prenatal medical checkups, and child medical checkups.
