The United Way of Henderson County

works every day to address the needs of

our community. By focusing on education,

health, and sustainable income, we

hope to provide the resources necessary

for everyone to build a solid foundation.

We invite you to help advance the cause

of early childhood education by participating

in the Success By 6 Program. Babies,

toddlers, and pre-schoolers depend on the

adults in their lives to give them the tools

needed to succeed. Let us help you find

those tools and prepare your child to succeed

not only in kindergarten, but in life.

WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE THE AGES AND STAGES QUESTIONAIRE!

 

Ages and Stages is a nationally recognized assessment tool designed to assist you in determining the growth and development of your child between the ages of birth through 5 years.  It's free to the public and very simple to utilize.  The Ages and Stages questionaire will help you to evaluate your child's large and small motor skills, problem solving abilities and social relations.  By clicking on the link below and filling out the requested information, you will automatically be signed up to receive the questionaire by mail which you will be able to fill out in the privacy of your own home, at your own convenience.  Once we receive the completed questionaire, a trained staff member will evaluate your answers and report to you milestones your child has accomplished along with any deficiencies you may be interested in taking further action with along with contact information of experts who can assist you in addressing those issues.  The Ages and Stages Questionaire has been given high rankings by the American Academy of Pediatrics, The American Academy of Neurology, The Child Neurology Society, and First Signs. 

 

Additionally, once signed up, you will receive periodic age appropriate questionaires as your child  continues to grow to ensure that he or she continues to reach developmental milestones that match his or her growth. 

 

What better way to ensure that your child is healthy, happy and ready to succeed by age six than to give him or her the tools to be healthy, happy and ready to succeed with.  Ages and Stages is your best tool!  Get started today by clicking on the link below!  It's free, it's simple, and it works!
