Supporting Early education & Development

SEED

Services are available for all Tuolumne County early education programs and child care homes, serving ages 0-5 years. The TCSOS SEED Program holds meetings with site teachers, staff, and providers to discuss options for working together and what supports and materials are available.

Training and coaching focus on California Social-Emotional Foundations for Early Learning, the Teaching Pyramid (CSEFEL- TP), whose aim is to support and create high-quality learning engagements, environments, and relationships with children, staff, and families. The Teaching Pyramid model is evidence-based, which means it has been proven effective in creating environments that achieve desired behaviors, social/emotional health, and school readiness skills. It is an inclusive model used for all children with varying developmental levels and needs.

To support the implementation and achievement of new skills and strategies, the SEED Coordinator works closely with staff and providers to develop a Quality Improvement Plan (QIP) each year and set goals to best reach them.

Made with Padlet

I own a home daycare and have been operating for approximately the last year. I have been working with Beth for the last 6 months or so on different ways I can improve my program and really help my littles be the best that they can be. I strongly feel that we have a responsibility to teach our young children even in the child care setting.  Beth has been an amazing asset in helping to create systems I am able to pair with existing ones and helping me (slowly) change my language and behavior pattern in order to help my kiddos the most. She has been introducing me to the Learning Pyramid and showing me what I am already doing well along with how I can make things better. She has printed, laminated, and created icons and schedules for me as well as lend me resources my kids adore!! I am excited to continue learning from Beth and hope to get much deeper into the Learning Pyramid.  This program has amazing potential and the ability to really further the children in our community. Thank you for making it a possibility.
