| ECFE Saint Paul Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) offers parent and early childhood education for families with children between birth and kindergarten age. ECFE is based on the idea that the family provides a child's first and most important learning environment, and parents are a child's first and most significant teachers. ECFE works to strengthen families and enhance the ability of all parents to provide the best possible environment for the healthy growth and development of their children. A typical ECFE class consists of three learning sections: TOGETHER TIME ECFE most often begins with parent/child activities in the children’s classroom. | PARENTS' TIME Parents then separate from their children and join together for a discussion group led by a Parent Educator. | CHILDREN'S TIME While the parents are in discussion, children continue to participate in activities facilitated by an Early Childhood Teacher. | | | | |
Our primary goal is to strengthen families through parent education and lay a foundation for your child’s school success. Come join us and see what fun learning can be!
