Parnership with Daycare-Preschools - Amee Cohen and Associates

Partnership with Daycare Centers and Preschools

Helping Children Get Ready for Big School

The KShield Partnership is primarily designed to form a collaborative partnership between Daycares, Preschools, selected primary school/centers and establishments caring for and educating children between the ages of 3 and 5.5 years of age. The partnership provides the preliminary screening and assists with placement for new children as well as identifying developmental difficulties/delays and referring for therapy services or other programs needed.

The Goal: KShield Partnership provides developmental screenings and identifies areas of developmental concerns in the early years which may affect educational and developmental growth. The program links caregivers/educators and family members to available resources provided by a team of professional therapists and or programs for addressing the identified developmental concerns.

Childcare providers now have an effective tool which identifies areas where a child may need more support. Early detection of developmental concerns is a key step in providing children and families with the services needed for academic and social success.
