    Update for Families: Continuing the Conversation

    June 10, 2020

    Thank you for allowing 4C for Children to be part of your weekly parenting journey over the last few months as we have all navigated the impact COVID-19 has had on child care, our families and all aspects of our lives.

    As some “normalcy” has begun to take root in our day-to-day lives, we’re taking a step back in how we communicate with you. After this issue, we’ll be connecting you with resources and parenting information on a monthly basis instead of weekly. So keep your eyes on your inbox on July 1 for the first monthly issue of Parent Source!

    You can still count on us to share breaking news related to maintaining child care. Please email families@4cforchildren.org if you need any further information or assistance.

    Help Finding Child Care

    Child care programs in Ohio must operate under reduced ratios and follow strict cleaning and handwashing protocols.

    Our specialists are available to help the best we can during this time. Visit our website or call us at 513-758-1330 or 937-723-1330. Check out this interactive map to search for care in your area. Reach out to us if you need assistance finding care.

    Continuing the Conversation About Race With Young Children

    Here are some additional resources for talking about race with the children in your family.

    • CNN partnered with Sesame Street for “Coming Together: Standing Up to Racism,” a town hall for kids and families. Watch the full town hall on CNN.com.
    • “Conversation is key…to building your child’s own positive sense of identity – along with a healthy respect for everyone else’s.” Read this article from NPR.
    • Using Stories to Nurture Identity, from ZERO TO THREE.

    Activities for Building Resilience

    Creating safe, stable nurturing relationships are the key to helping kids overcome life’s challenges. Joining Forces for Children developed five tip sheets which outline easy, every day actions that help children build resiliency and develop strong, stable relationships.

    Vroom: Creating Brain-Building Moments

    Tap into Vroom resources and check out the tips and activities tailored to your 0 to 5-year-old child. You’ll not only learn to turn everyday activities into brain building opportunities, but you and your child will have lots of fun along the way!
