Home Visiting Program

The Bright Beginnings Home Visiting Program is an extension of our two-generation approach beyond our early learning center. This program is open to pregnant women and children from birth until age three and offers Early Head Start services to children and families in their home environments.

Home Visitors meet with parents and their children in the family’s home environment during a weekly 90-minute visit. During each of these visits, parents are coached on strategies for being their child’s first and best teacher. Our Home Visitors provide health screenings and assessments for the child, plus family support services including connecting families with workforce development, health, mental health, and disability services. Each family’s Home Visitor collaborates closely with case managers and other service providers involved with the family.

BBI’s Home-Based Program uses the Parents as Teachers (PAT) foundational curriculum. This is an evidence-informed and research-based curriculum designed to promote healthy child and family development from pregnancy through age three. The curriculum has a wealth of family-friendly activities and information about a range of development and parenting topics pertinent to families of young children.
