Who is your child’s first and most important teacher? Yep, it’s you, and the First Teacher program is here to help you. They provide resources for parenting (free to Clallam County residents), including a monthly newsletter. They provide free child development cards which briefly orient parents to the activities and thoughts parents should see their children achieving, and associated parenting tips to promote healthy development and safety.
In response to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, First Teacher is hosting a series of parent-child activities online with Zoom sessions, to talk about parenting and childhood development. These usually involve a host reading a story and talking about a topic.
You can subscribe to the newsletter here.

First Teacher is a program of the Parenting Matters Foundation, a non-profit corporation which works with United Way of Clallam County. The Parenting Matters Foundation was established by Dr. Cynthia Martin.
ClallamCountyBar.com supports the First Teacher concept. Courts can help parents resolve divorce and custody disputes, but not necessarily amicably. Court’s can’t help parents with parenting.
