Birth to Five Workshop: Caregivers’ Emotional Preparation for kindergarten Transition
2025-03-27 18:30 - 19:30 (America/New_York)
The journey from preschool or home to kindergarten is a significant milestone for your child, but also for you as a caregiver. This transition can bring up many emotions. However, we often focus on all the paperwork needed and neglect to create a plan for our emotional well-being during this process. Caregivers, join us as we discuss practical tips to prepare yourself emotionally for the transition to kindergarten, so you can set you and your child for success.
This workshop will be offered twice but you only need to register once. All who register will receive the recording and a copy of the presentation.
