Nutrition Guides
Proper nutrition is key to a healthy lifestyle, especially for pregnant women and young children. Healthy eating habits provide the essential nutrients needed for growth, development, and overall well-being. The Early Childhood Learning & Knowledge Center provides a collection of articles, flyers, and resources designed to help families support their children in making nutritious choices from an early age.
The Flu (for parents)
Our flu resource section is designed to help parents understand and prevent the flu, a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. The flu can be particularly dangerous for young children, with thousands hospitalized each year. We explain the differences between the flu and a common cold, flu symptoms to watch for, and how the virus spreads. Learn about the importance of annual flu vaccines for children, how they can reduce the risk of severe illness, and other preventive measures. Stay informed on how to protect your family and what to do if your child gets sick.
Oral Health
The Head Start Early Childhood Learning & Knowledge Center provides you with a wide range of materials designed to support the oral health of pregnant women, infants, and young children. Whether you're looking for tips on dental visits, fluoride use, nutrition, or oral hygiene, you'll find helpful information here. These resources include articles, flyers, and practical guides that you can use at home or share with your dental care providers.
Mental Health
We understand the importance of supporting the mental health of children, families, and staff every day. Early childhood mental health is about nurturing a child's ability to express emotions, form trusting relationships, and explore the world—all within the supportive environment of family and community.
