➡️Milestones are scientifically-supported behavioral or physical checkpoints seen in infants and children as they grow and develop. ➡️Abilities are additional skills your child should be developing. These are important skills that look at your child’s overall behavior to gauge their progress. We've made it our mission to help parents track baby's milestones and abilities by providing free and trusted information. As we like to say, it's never too early (or too late!) to help get your baby on the right pathway. At @Pathwaysorg, all of our developmental milestones are validated by American Academy of Pediatrics findings. On our website you can find hundreds of free resources like: ✨ Milestones based on baby's age and abilities ✨ Games to play to help reach milestones ✨ Videos showing typical and atypical development ✨ Hundreds (yes, hundreds!) of blogs on tummy time, feeding, communication, and motor milestones #babymilestones #babydevelopment

Check out the Pathways App for lots of great resources for your child's development including daily activities, milestone tracker, and tummy time timer!

Reaching milestones in skills like taking a first step, smiling for the first time, and waving "bye bye" are important signs of a child's development. Children achieve milestones in how they play, learn, speak, act, and move. If you want to ensure that your little one is reaching their milestones, the CDC's milestones and parent tips have been updated with new checklist ages for 15 and 30 months. https://bit.ly/4f4OzSD

At Parents As Teachers, we celebrate Juneteenth as a day to honor the strength, perseverance, and hope of Black families throughout history. It is a day to reflect on how far we've come while recognizing that there is still work to be done to ensure true equity and justice for all children and families.

Freedom and family are inextricably linked. On Juneteenth, we recommit ourselves to empowering every parent, caregiver, and child through access to quality early childhood education, resources, and support. We strive to build a world where all families can nurture their children's curiosity, unlock their potential, and pave the way for the next generation to thrive.

Join us in celebrating the resilience of the human spirit and the unbreakable family bonds.

Today marks a major milestone for my client, Kaye Deshonna HenryJames Vaughn. I had the privilege of nominating her for the Oklahoma Parent Leadership Award at the State Capitol. Remarkably, she was one of the few awardees who previously participated in the Parents as Teachers program. Witnessing her growth as her Parent Educator has been truly inspiring. Her husband, Andrew Vaughn, has also been an incredible support, warmly welcoming me into their home. I am so proud to be part of Kaye's parenting journey and wish her continued success as she dedicates herself to serving others. Congratulations on your award!
