Early Childhood Family Education 2019-2020 Catalog | Page 9

"One of the most beneficial
aspects of ECFE is the parent
education time during class. Not
only do you learn about things to
help your child, but you find out
other parents are going through
the same things you are! You
realize you are not alone in this
parenting journey. At ECFE, you
can find friends for your child and
friends for you!"
