A Successful School Year Starts with Some Self-Care
A successful start to the school year is just as important for you as it is for your kids.
Between school supplies shopping, finishing up summer activities, creating a functional workspace, and getting back to or starting a school year routine, life can feel a bit overwhelming. This is totally normal, and you’re not alone!
Your child’s needs will change with age. You aren’t expected to know it all. The Healthy Beginnings calendar is full of helpful information and resources for parents, including information about developmental milestones, as well as programs and services that support both parents and their young children.
Use this calendar to get some answers to questions that you may have or get information to make choices during the early years of your child’s life. It’s an easy way to access all things related to child care in Maryland!
Each month a different child-related topic is highlighted – offering various program information and how to get more details. Throughout the calendar, you’ll benefit from the health, safety, growth, and learning activities and tips.
Whether it's from preschool to kindergarten or middle to high school, the stress and challenges associated with back-to-school transitions are at an unprecedented high.
