Supporting Social & Emotional Growth in Young Children
At Winifred’s, we know that emotional and social skills are just as important as ABCs and 123s. That’s why our childcare approach focuses on building confidence, empathy, and resilience in every child.
How We Foster Healthy Development:
🌟 Structured Playtime – Group activities teach sharing, cooperation, and problem-solving.
🌟 Emotional Check-Ins – Our caregivers use "feelings charts" and open conversations to help kids express emotions.
🌟 Therapist-Integrated Care – For children who need extra support, our on-site therapists work on social skills through play-based learning.
Tips for Parents at Home:
Model Emotional Language – Say, "I feel frustrated when toys aren’t put away" to teach emotional awareness.
Encourage Peer Play – Arrange playdates to practice social interactions.
Praise Effort, Not Just Results – "You worked so hard on that puzzle!" builds perseverance.
Why It Matters:
Children who develop strong social-emotional skills early are better learners, communicators, and friends.
