Community is our passion
Family participation is very important to the growth and development in your children who participate in early learning programs. Research has found that children who have parents that are more involved in their education have greater successes long term. Robin’s Nest takes great pride in organizing many events and excursions where parents can get involved in their child’s day and the things we teach daily in or program. Robin’s Nest encourages parents, grandparents, extended family to attend excursions, classroom parities, be a guest speaker and share a trade or activity of interest with the children. Parent participation can look different to each family and the time they have to offer in today’s busy schedules. Please ask at the office how you can be involved in your child’s educational success here at Robin’s Nest.
