ESTEEM - Enhancing Skills to Enrich Eager Minds

BrightStart!

BrightStart! provides parent-child interaction by way of songs, plays, and presentations to ten high-needs, vulnerable immigrant mothers with children under the age of 48 months. BrightStart!  offers structured theme-related activities in two-hour sessions, once a week. The Goals of BrightStart! are to:

  • assist mothers in improving social and language skills while caring for their babies/toddlers;
  • give mothers tools to provide the essentials of emotional, cognitive and social development for their children;
  • stimulate the love of learning;
  • increase self-confidence and a feeling of self-worth in both the mother and the child;
  • increase mothers' capacity to develop a positive lifestyle through education; and
  • assist mothers in developing support systems.
