Family Communication
EarlyWorks makes it easy to keep families informed about the program and their child’s progress in real time.
Learning and Development
EarlyWorks enables easy access to children’s portfolios of observations, journals, images and family communications in just one click. Parents and Educators can view children’s current learning, areas of strength and progression towards goals. Having each child’s individual documentation in one place allows educators to easily reflect, evaluate, and plan for each child. As educators continue to observe children, their profile grows and becomes a complete learning summary which includes family input and daily communications.
