We’re proud to share our Quarter 1 child outcome data for SCF and MIECHV.

This quarter, we saw strong progress across key developmental areas:
• 67% of children are meeting or exceeding widely held expectations in social-emotional development
• 86% in physical development
• 72% in language development
• 65% in cognitive development

This data helps us better understand where children are thriving and where we can continue strengthening support to help them grow.

As we move into Quarter 2, our focus will be on meeting the 75% observation requirement in each domain by continuing to build team member skills, documenting high-quality observations, and using those observations across multiple objectives and dimensions.

Together, this work helps ensure we are supporting every child’s development in meaningful and intentional ways.

These strawberry yogurt pancakes are a fun and nutritious way to support healthy eating for young children. Made with simple ingredients, they’re a great option for breakfast or a special snack and an easy way to introduce fresh fruit and protein into little diets.

Cooking together also gives children a chance to build early skills like following directions, measuring ingredients, and trying new foods.

Small moments in the kitchen can make a big difference in building healthy habits that last.

The Employee Winter Extravaganza was a wonderful way to wrap up the year together. From engaging speakers and fun raffle baskets to interactive activities and plenty of holiday camaraderie, the event created space for connection, reflection, and celebration.

It was a meaningful opportunity to step away from our day-to-day work, recognize the dedication of our team, and enjoy time together as we closed out the year. Moments like these help strengthen our culture, build relationships, and remind us that the work we do is supported by an incredible group of people.

Thank you to everyone who helped plan the event and to all who attended and made it such a success.

Music can turn everyday routines into fun learning moments. 🎶

A simple clean-up song helps children know what’s coming next while making the task feel playful instead of stressful. Singing together encourages listening skills, cooperation, and independence while keeping the mood positive.

Try using a familiar tune with short, repetitive lines like:
“Twinkle, twinkle, little star, time to clean up where you are,”
and invite children to sing along as they put toys back in their place.

Songs like this help create structure, support smooth transitions, and make daily routines feel fun for everyone.

Music makes learning stick, one song at a time. 🎵

In early childhood education, Approaches to Learning focuses on how children learn, not just what they learn. This domain includes curiosity, persistence, creativity, problem-solving, and a child’s ability to stay engaged and try again when something feels challenging.

At SCF, we support this domain by creating learning environments that encourage children to explore, ask questions, and take safe risks. Our educators intentionally plan activities that promote hands-on discovery, support children as they work through challenges, and recognize effort as much as outcomes.

By nurturing strong approaches to learning early on, we help children build confidence, resilience, and a love of learning that carries with them into school and beyond.

A new year is the perfect time for us to reset and refocus as a team.

Whether you’re setting professional goals, reflecting on your work, or simply turning over a new leaf, this season is about growth, intention, and continuous improvement. The work we do every day matters, and small, intentional steps can lead to meaningful progress for both our teams and the families we serve.

Here’s to supporting one another, learning together, and moving into the year ahead with purpose, collaboration, and positivity.

January is a time to focus on healthy beginnings. 💙

Proper nutrition before and during pregnancy plays an important role in supporting a baby’s growth and development. Getting enough folic acid, along with eating balanced, nutrient-rich foods, can help support a healthy pregnancy.

Simple steps like taking a prenatal vitamin, eating leafy greens, beans, citrus fruits, and whole grains, and talking with a healthcare provider can make a meaningful difference.

Small choices today can help support healthy outcomes tomorrow. 💙

“Me” minutes matter. ⏱️💛

For teachers and caregivers, full days often leave little time for yourself. Even finding 5 minutes here or there can make a real difference.

1️⃣ Step outside and feel the sunshine
2️⃣ Take a few deep breaths between tasks
3️⃣ Enjoy a quiet cup of coffee or tea
4️⃣ Stretch, walk, or move your body gently
5️⃣ Do one small thing that brings you joy

Those small moments add up. During Mental Wellness Month, we’re reminding families and educators that caring for yourself helps you show up with more patience, energy, and presence for others.

You don’t need an hour. Sometimes, five minutes is enough. 💙

Those two minutes at the toothbrush really matter. 🪥✨

Brushing helps build healthy habits that can last a lifetime. Simple routines like brushing twice a day, using the right tools, and making it fun can go a long way in protecting little smiles.
