We work with nearly 90 childcare centers in North Texas, helping them to be excellent environments for the children who will spend most of their day in childcare. Many of these centers do not have websites or the knowledge on how to create one. Educational First Steps is looking for a volunteer that can conduct a training for thes day care centers on how they can create their own webpage. By having a webpage, families in their community will be able locate quality childcare options in their area. The day/time is flexible.
Our non profit, Educational First Steps, coaches caregivers of at-risk children on proven ways to teach, creating high quality early learning environments where children in poverty are cared for to set tomorrow's generation on a path to lifelong success.

About Educational First Steps

Mission Statement
OUR MISSION: To improve the quality and availability of early childhood education for economically disadvantaged children.
Description
Educational First Steps helps create nationally accredited early learning centers in the neighborhoods and for the children that need them most. We do this by transforming day care centers in disadvantaged and at risk neighborhoods of North Texas into superior pre-school experiences and their staffs into qualified teachers of age appropriate academic and social-emotional skills. Without this opportunity to develop a solid early foundation, these children most often enter the elementary grades unprepared for learning, with inadequate vocabulary, in need of costly remedial intervention and likely to repeat the cycle of poverty.
EFS' goal is to intervene in these children's lives at a pivotal point when they want nothing more than to learn -- and need nothing less than our best effort to give them the opportunity they deserve.
