Finding a Preschool that Nurtures Emotional Growth

In preschool, young children learn how to move through the world, navigate challenges, manage their feelings, and be a friend. These foundational skills follow children their entire lives and, after nearly two isolating pandemic years, they are more important than we’ve ever realized. A preschool that can support your child’s social-emotional growth is one of the most important investments you can make in your child's life. In this discussion you will learn:

1. How preschools address children’s social-emotional needs

2. How to gauge a school’s approach to social-emotional learning as you research schools

3. Why social-emotional learning is so important, especially now
