About Us
Connecting parents to resources in their communities
Alberta Children’s Services continues to lead the way in giving parents flexibility to choose the early childhood development and child care services that meet the specific needs of their children.
A Parent Link Centre provides parents, caregivers and their children with supports to ensure that children come to school ready to learn and ensure that parents have the supports needed to help their children develop and fulfill their potential. Parents will be able to access information about community services, obtain referrals, and meet other parents, children, and families, while taking part in quality early learning activities.
Every centre is uniquely designed to meet the needs of families living in each community. All offer:
- Parent Education Programs
- Programs for young children to learn and play
- Family support services such as nutrition programs, support groups, clothing exchange
- Information and referrals to other parenting support and child development programs in your
community
- Developmental Screening
We are the Parent Link Centre for South East Rocky View.
