Program Highlights: Jubilee JumpStart's program focuses on two key research findings; (1) that consistent nurturing relationships are crucial for both the intellectual and the social-emotional growth of children; and (2) that an evidence-informed curriculum that begins in infancy and continues up to kindergarten supports a child's social-emotional, language, and cognitive development, which are vital to the child's success in school and in later life. Based on studies that show such programs make a marked improvement in the social, academic, and work success of children, Jubilee JumpStart will utilize the Creative Curriculum and Learning Games to develop an Abecedarian/Creative Curriculum model program, providing reflective and responsive care for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. Jubilee JumpStart is a dual language immersion program that supports the development of two languages (English-Spanish) in young children. Jubilee JumpStart will build strong partnerships with families to enhance their capacity to meet their children's needs through support, education and guidance.
