It is hard work being little! Development happens at a rapid pace during the first 5 years of life. Neural connections are being made and strengthened at astonishing speeds during this time. We know that these early years are laying the foundation for your child’s future physical and mental health.

We also know that parenting during this time can be very challenging! Your child keeps having tantrums. You are sleep-deprived. Daycare called again because your kiddo bit another child. You’re just not sure if you’re doing this parenting thing right.

At SBCC, we want to support you in laying the foundation for your child. Nobody should need to be alone on this journey and we are happy to be part of yours!
