Henry Booth House

Henry Booth House Dedicated toward improving the quality of life for culturally and economically diverse families.

Head Start:
Is a comprehensive child development program tailored to meet the cognitive, social, emotional and physical needs of 3-5 year old children. Moreover, our program further focuses on the medical, dental, hearing & vision, nutrition, disability and special needs of children in the early stages of life. Our ongoing goal is to get our children ready for school and ready for life in a safe,

secure and nurturing preschool setting. Health:
We assure direct delivery of services such as physical exams, dental exams, immunizations, hearing and vision screenings as indicated in the performance standards. We also ensure that the facility’s City and State Licensing Standards and regulations for health and safety are met.In the disability area, we assess the health status and special needs of children and their families; including referral for treatment, counseling services and other supports services if needed in conjunction with the other content area coordinators and assist in the referral process to CPS for children who are suspected of having a disability. Nutrition:
We assist families in meeting each child’s nutrition needs and establishing good eating habits that nurture healthy development and promote life long well being. These goals are reached by: identification of each child’s nutritional needs: the design and implementation of nutritional services programs: meal service in partner and center base programs; family assistance with nutrition: food safety and sanitation. Education:
Our Head Start programs provide all enrolled children with a well-designed curriculum (Creative Curriculum) that allows the teacher to know and develop a positive relationship with each child. Teachers follow a consistent schedule, carry through on announced plans and promises, set up an environment where children can find and return materials on their own.Classroom staff provide appropriate play materials that support and challenge children’s abilities, help children express their feelings in constructive ways. They provide appropriate real-world responsibilities and jobs, encourage children to see tasks through to completion and offer children opportunities to make choices. Teachers provide children with ample opportunities for creative expression, allow children freedom to explore the environment, encourage children to work independently. They value children’s ideas and promote problem solving and appropriate risk taking. Family and Community Partners:
Henry Booth House Head Start supports families as they identify and meet their own goals, nurture the development of their children, and advocate for communities that are supportive of children and families of all cultures. The building of trusting, collaborative relationships between parents and staff allows them to share with and learn from one another. Family Health:
*Doulas function as midwives and pregnancy coaches to ensure at-risk women enjoy healthy pregnancies, deliveries and postpartum.

*The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program focuses on women who are pregnant and their child(ren) up to 5 yrs of age. This program educates mothers on the proper nutrition for babies and young children. HBH provides counseling and coupons for proper nutritional foods.

* MIECHV- Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting supports pregnant women and families and helps at-risk parents of children from birth to kindergarten entry tap the resources and hone the skills they need to raise children who are physically, socially and emotionally healthy and ready to learn.

We are grateful for Ms. Laundon and other teachers from the Henry Booth House for bringing the students to our Saint James Farm and having them learn alongside us! The kids come over to see the Saint James Community Farm regularly and taste the treats, plant seeds, count the plants, and name the colors of crops! Because of our collaboration, they now have curriculum that complements what the students see on the farm.

Today is certainly a “Thankful Thursday” for Henry Booth House. HBH was singularly selected from programs across the nation, for one of our parents and one of our staff-home visitors to offer testimony for our MICHEV program at the Congressional subcommittee hearing in Washington D. C. led by Congressman Danny Davis. We at HBH administer the Healthy Families of Illinois (HFI) program for the State of Illinois.

This morning, the Bright Stars classroom at Hegewisch took the coolest CTA field trip with our very own Head Start dad, Mr. Pizzaro. They talked about the community, signs and what they mean. The kids had a blast and CPD even got in, waving "hi" to all the children. Field Trips such as these connect us and the community. Thank you, Mr. Pizarro!! We loved exploring with you!
