Anne Sullivan Center Groups offer developmentally appropriate activities
for infants and toddlers. Groups also offer parent to parent support
and opportunities for parents to consult with Early Intervention
staff regarding their child’s development. Groups meet one
time per week. Most groups are attended by a parent or caregiver
and child, some are attended by the child or parent(s) only, while
others include typically developing peers. The Anne Sullivan Early
Intervention Program currently offers the following groups:
Parent/Infant Groups are planned for children who are younger
than 18 months and their parent or primary caregiver.
Parent/Toddler Groups are designed for children who are older
than 18 months and their parent or primary caregiver.
Toddler Groups are for children 24 months or older who may attend,
when appropriate, without their parent or primary caregiver present.
Parent Support Groups are held during the day while toddlers
attend playgroup. The Anne Sullivan Center also offers evening,
parent only groups for support and education.
Specialty Groups include:
and
Kindermusik™,
movement and music based groups for parents and children.
Toddler Groups in child care settings.
