Parent-child relationships

Staff-Parent Relationships That Honor and Support Parenting

Explore this resource to foster positive parent-child relationships through everyday staff-parent relationships. Find prompts and questions that invite partnership-building conversations with parents.

Carrying the Work Forward with Families

Head Start staff and parents bring unique elements to their relationship while they work with a focus on supporting children’s growth and learning. 

Taking Steps to Strengthen Relationships and Support Parents

Head Start staff can use these three steps to build relationships with parents and support their learning and decision-making.

Using a Parallel Process

The positive, goal-directed relationships Head Start staff form with parents can strengthen the relationships parents have with their children. This parallel process supports parents in self-discovery.

Co-creating Strong Bonds

Secure relationships are the foundation of trust. By using positive, strengths-based attitudes, staff can create trusting, supportive partnerships with parents.

Supporting Parenting: A Balancing Act

Personal and cultural background informs how people parent. Head Start and Early Head Start programs can provide important support to parents who want the best for their children.

Supporting Positive Family Responsiveness to Children’s Communication

This Home Visiting webinar discusses the importance of understanding that all behavior has meaning. Explore how children use behavior to communicate their wants, needs, intentions, and emotions.

Supporting Social and Emotional Learning Through Parent-Child Interactions

Explore research, strategies, and resources that support social and emotional learning through intentional parent-child interactions in this Home Visiting webinar.

Home-Based Parent Video Series

In this set of videos, learn about the home-based program option. Find out how home visits work, what parents can expect from a home visitor, and the role parent's play in the development of their child.

The Importance of Schedules and Routines

Learn the difference between schedules and routines and why they are important. Discover ways to partner with families on schedules and routines and reinstate them when programs reopen.
