BRILL FRC ParentChild+

Who We Are ParentChild+ is a school readiness programme that aims to foster preschool children’s literacy and numeracy skills through educational play. It is aimed at children aged 18 months to 3 years and is delivered over two years, consisting of two weekly home visits during the academic year. Each week, the home visitor brings a book or toy and uses it to model play and interaction activities for parents (or sometimes grandparents) and children to do together. The programme is designed to strengthen the relationship between parent and child. The books and toys are left after each visit to encourage interaction between the parents and their young children.

ParentChild+’s vision is that every child enters school ready to succeed because every parent has the knowledge and resources to build school readiness where it starts: in the home environment.
