Child time gives me the opportunity to work with children and help them
grow on a daily basis.
Followed a certain curriculum every day and documented childrens status
after each activity.
Parent involvement is essential through an app on a tablet that keeps
parents involved with their child's day.

child needs some extra attention, we are able to work around their own
needs.
