Hanover Parent Child Community Pre-School Program

The Hanover Parent Child Community Centers are open to all parents and their children in several school communities.

The programs are facilitated by an Early Childhood Educator (ECE) and we are a play-based program with a holistic approach to children’s early childhood development and a safe space for parents to ask questions and build relationships with each other and staff. We strive to make everyone feel welcome and value the contributions of each person. We are a resource to build community relationships and connections within our schools. Join us in your community school for story time, songs, crafts, play and snack time.

This program is provided to promote school readiness. Children will have the opportunity to play, learn, create, sing, and develop skills to prepare them for kindergarten. Parents will be able to visit with other parents and participate in activities with their children. Programming is free, you do not need to sign up or register and families can attend once or twice a week or drop by when able. Families can also attend any of the programs in the Hanover School Division.

We will follow the same schedule as the Hanover School division calendar in regards to school breaks (e.g., spring break), closures, and inclement weather.

“I love working with students of all ages and helping them communicate, learn and grow. I’ve been with the Hanover School Division since 2006 and am a mom of two wonderful young men and have two beautiful mini-australian shepherds.”

“I’ve been working with children and their families since 2010 and love finding new and creative ways to engage children in learning through play. I have a fat cat at home that loves to steal my blankets and get involved in everything I do in the house. Working with children is a lifelong dream come true for me.”

“I’ve been working in childcare since 2012. Prior to that I’ve enjoyed volunteering in different child-based programs and coaching sports teams. I’ve always enjoyed meeting new people and forming strong connections and feel honored to be a small part in the lives of families in this community. Aside from childcare I love to paint at home in my studio and spend time with my family.”
