Circle-time fun at Stubbs playgroup.
Staff are becoming familiar with our new database, Visit Tracker, and are pleased with how easy it is to document visits and updates. Meanwhile, Parents as Teachers (PAT) New Castle County is working on the Quality Endorsement and Improvement Process (QEIP) with PAT National.
We’re also excited to welcome two new educators! Katrina Johnson has completed her training with PAT National, and Danielle Noto will begin training on Feb. 10.
We currently offer two weekly playgroups:
- Wednesdays, 9:30–11:00 a.m., at Reach Church on Rt. 896 in Bear, hosted by Lisa Alexandre
- Thursdays, 9:30–11:00 a.m., at Stubbs EEC in Wilmington, hosted by Barbara Berganzo
Additionally, Lisa Alexandre supports pregnant and parenting teens weekly through the Delaware Adolescent Program, Inc. (DAPI) at McKean High School in Wilmington and Sarah Pyle Academy in Newark.
